The Paris region's culinary heritage is highly varied, thanks to the differences of its inhabitants. The Écomusée du Grand-Orly Seine Bièvre explores this multiculturalism through cuisine, in a free, participatory exhibition.

Feel like sampling an exhibition for a change? TheGrand-Orly Seine Bièvre Ecomuseum, which documents the heritage of the southern suburbs, invites you to discover a free program based on cuisine and multiculturalism, and to explore the culinary heritage handed down from generation to generation in the Île-de-France region. Because food is a living, constantly evolving part of society, bringing us closer together and giving us the pleasure of sharing, while respecting the traditions and know-how of our elders.

The Paris region is particularly well endowed with world cuisine, and it's a real opportunity to sample dishes from the four corners of the globe in and around the capital. This exhibition is a snapshot of the suburbs' culinary cultural landscape, thanks to the participation of some twenty local residents who shared their stories, memories and experiences of their family's cooking. Kurdish pizza, vegan curry, gyozas - you're sure to leave hungry!

During the exhibition, you'll be able to move around familiar spaces in a home: the kitchen, dining room, living room, and interact with playful devices, perfect for children! You'll have to use your senses and test your knowledge of food and cooking, a moment that may make you nostalgic, with delicious memories of smells from your past or old family recipes handed down by your grandmother.

From now until the end of the exhibition, we'll be offering tasty urban strolls, sensory workshops and other activities around the theme.
