KACHEN #28 (Autumn 2021) English Edition

EDITORIAL
Dear readers,
Can you feel the fresh gust of air? I don’t mean the
autumn wind that will soon surely blow around our heads.
I mean the general feeling of change after the (hopefully)
endured pandemic. What we felt as a gentle breeze before
the summer started, has refreshed us and will, with any
luck, soon turn into a stiff breeze that will spur on the
economy! Let’s hope that we have truly overcome the
worst and, most of all, that we can emerge from surviving
the crisis stronger and cleverer.
The team at KACHEN is also in an up-current: We have
several projects that long had to lie still and that can now
finally be realised. Stay tuned to find out what we have
up our sleeve!
We can now finally reveal a date for the bestowal of the
BLOG AWARD 2020 (October 20th) and we are working
on a live stream of the event, so that our 8,000 readers (!)
who voted online for their favourite influencer can follow
the festive conclusion online. The KACHEN-Club will
make its debut with a first reader event at the beginning
of December and the KACHEN Tasty Box will launch
as well! This will be a surprise box filled with local and
regional delicacies that you, dear readers, can order and
subscribe to! Find out more in this issue.
But that’s not all that is new in this issue as you will soon
discover on turning the pages. “KACHEN with Kids” is a
new category that, as of now, has a firm spot in our magazine.
Our wine and dine tips, as well as our new cocktail
series, will surely delight the connoisseurs among you.
In addition, we have joined up with Thermomix – also
in order to make our recipes accessible for those readers
who are the proud owners of such magic equipment.
From now on, you will find an icon next to certain recipes
that indicates a Thermomix version on our website
www.kachen.lu. Last but not least, we are working hard
on the KACHEN recipe app that will contain even more
recipes, tips, tricks and news for you that will make your
life easier and delicious! Indeed, I can only urge you all
to subscribe to our weekly newsletter on www.kachen.lu
in order to always be in touch with the latest KACHEN
news and also keep up with the general goings on in the
Luxembourgish connoisseur scene – for that is quite a lot!
I’m thrilled about our partnership with “We’re smart
world,” who awarded our magazine “World media of the
year” last year. From now on, KACHEN is the world-exclusive
media partner of this innovative initiative that
awards the best vegetable restaurants worldwide on a
yearly basis and that campaigns for a plant-based diet
that has long become so much more than “only” a trend.
Instead, it is a smart contribution for our environment
and the future of our planet (not lastly, our health). This
partnership is no accident, for KACHEN is now available
in several European countries (Germany, Austria,
Belgium) and, as of this issue, will also be available in
the Netherlands.
As you can see, your little, Luxembourgish magazine
is, slowly but surely, growing to become a global player,
carrying everything beautiful and good from Luxembourg
out into the world – and we are quite proud of that!
I wish you a refreshing and pleasurable autumn full of
energy.
Stay healthy,
Bibi Wintersdorf
and the entire team at KACHEN
