Celebrating Gino Girolomoni: The Visionary Father of Organic Farming in Italy

Nov 13, 2023 | I present to you

Brothers and sisters, it is with great honor and privilege that I present to you Gino Girolomoni – the father of organic farming in Italy. He was a political activist, intellectual, and writer, such an inspirational personality.

He was the founder of this producer of 100% organic Italian wheat, slowly dried at a single location. This pasta, born from the idea of an intellectual, makes me feel deeply connected with him, and I am in love with it. Let’s honor the dignity he brought to the land!

The Confluence of Food and Politics: A Danish Experience

Sep 22, 2023 | Joakim

One of my greatest hobbies is enjoying local European cuisine. Europe’s enormous cultural diversity is chiefly reflected in its local cuisine, complete with traditions and origins. Natural boundaries such as rivers, mountain ranges, and seas have played pivotal roles in the creation of nations and their political strategies. Additionally, Europe’s navigable rivers have fostered trade and growth.

So, where better to enjoy Smørrebrød than in Copenhagen? Easier said than done, especially during a late lunch. One place after another was packed. However, as a hallmark of this European summer, iconic former social democratic leaders have guided me in the right direction of restaurants. As an open-minded individual, I engage in intellectual discussions with everyone, where respect and equality serve as the foundation for excellent public discourse.

This time, fate led me to the Labour Museum in Copenhagen, where I saw a wall poster featuring none other than Anker Jörgensen (Danish politician who served at various times as Prime Minister). The museum’s basement houses the classic Smørrebrød restaurant Café & Ølhalle “1892,” complete with workers’ beer—a darker classic lager that exudes natural personality, much like Anker himself. Exemplified by Ankers refusal to move into the official Prime Minister residence Marienborg, preferring to stay with his wife in their small apartment in a working class area of Copenhagen.

When darkness falls dull in its effect of change, afternoon breaks into the evening. At the same time, a pulsating flow of people on the sidewalk increases, down to the subway and up from the subway.

I turn off from Duke Street after my regular visit to the Checkers Tavern; as the raindrops hit the surface, my umbrella is raised, and Jermyn Street is in front. There is something magical about this time frame in London, between the afternoon and before dinner – an hour of possibilities and exploration. The effect of Dunhill and Floris reaches me as Jermyn, in his usual way, presents hit after hit, but now it is Waterstone’s flagship.

Few stores can initiate, inspire and invite you to a journey in intelligence – an intellectual path of discovery as you have never seen. I always go here to find a perfect conversation topic for my drink at the club before dinner. With my classic conversation opener – look what I found…:
Dominion will place the story of how we came to be what we are and how we think the way we do in the broadest historical context. Ranging in time from the Persian invasion of Greece in 480 BC to the ongoing migration crisis in Europe today and from Nebuchadnezzar to the Beatles.

It broadens my view in business and as a fellow human being to create insight and take part, as well as learn from others and be inspired. Welcome to the conversation before dinner.
