Through the voices of farmers, roasters, and baristas, it explores the craftsmanship, culture, and passion behind every cup, revealing coffee as both a global product and a deeply human story.

Info

Bib Permeke trakteert tijdens de Antwerp Coffee Week op een zeer smakelijke editie van de reeks "We moeten het hebben over A". We stemmen onze smaakpapillen af op de rijke koffiecultuur die in onze stad leeft, en daar hoort de juiste koek of gebak bij. 

De zoetebekjes onder ons weten het – Antwerpen houdt van gebak. En als we de wildgroei aan koffiezaken mogen geloven, ook van het zwarte goud. Hoe is dat zo gekomen? Wie heeft ons speciality coffee leren drinken? En hoe komt die onweerstaanbare drang naar iets zoets bij koffie?  

Onze gasten:

Regula Ysewijn Regula Ysewijn MBE is een internationaal gelauwerd culinair schrijver, fotograaf en auteur van onder andere ‘Pride and Pudding’ of ‘Van wafel tot koek’. Je kent haar van het programma Bake Off en haar samenwerking met netflix voor het Bridgerton kookboek. Met haar bijzondere interesse in historische recepten en de evolutie van onze eet- en drinkcultuur, is deze Antwerpse de perfecte gast aan onze tafel. 

Rob Berghmans Rob stampte in 2003 Caffenation uit de grond, en leerde menig Antwerpenaar hoe lekker speciality coffee kan geuren en proeven. Onder de noemer ‘one drug, one nation’ runt hij samen met zijn kompanen Lieke en Yaeko vier gespecialiseerde koffiezaken en een eigen branderij. Rob vertelt sappig en met passie over alle soorten, zijn wereldwijde zoektochten naar de beste bonen en wat Antwerpen uniek maakt in dit verhaal. En hij brengt zijn koffie mee! 

Manon van Hove (Hungry Antwerp)Manon startte Hungry Antwerp op vanuit haar passie voor samen eten en drinken. De community en foodblog zet met succes de culinaire scene van Antwerpen in de kijker en maakt van Manon een invloedrijke "Antwerpse foodie" met 35K+ volgers. Ze promoot lokale horeca via Instagram, een website en evenementen. 

Raf Njotea is onze moderator. Je kent hem van de Radio 1 podcast Ouder of als columnist voor de Standaard. 

Over de reeks:

We moeten het hebben over A brengt stemmen samen die vandaag het Antwerpse verhaal mee schrijven. Ze is gestart vanuit onze vaste thema collectie Antwerpen – jouw verhaal. Van Modestad tot Kunstenstad, van Diamantstad tot Havenstad: de reeks is een zoektocht naar de mensen die de identiteit van de stad telkens opnieuw vormgeven.
