Cooking is an important constant in Tenzin Tensing’s life. For many years he worked as a cook in a Tibetan monastery. He has been living in Basel since 2012 and is trying to establish a regular meeting place, where he can offer his Tibetan Momo dumplings. In this workshop, Tenzin Tensing will show us how to make momos and talk about his experiences as a cook, his work in Basel and his vision of a meeting place.

Tenzin Tensing lived in a Tibetan monastery on the border with Nepal from the age of 8 until he came to Basel 6 years ago. He is involved in various projects as a cook, such as “Zur Bleibe”, “Euer Werkhof Gundeli” and “BaselWandel”. He is also active in the Tibetan community, where he organizes workshops on Tibetan yoga, amongst other topics.
