Global Flavors & Beats: MUP’s International Lunch
03. 12. 2025 Author: Berkcan Tokyay On Friday, November 28, Metropolitan University Prague (MUP) hosted an International Lunch, bringing together 40 students to celebrate our diverse community. The event was a true cultural journey, with tables overflowing with homemade dishes representing countries from India, Japan, and Taiwan to Ukraine, France, Italy, and beyond. It was a unique opportunity to taste the world right here on campus.Beyond the food, the atmosphere was electrified by a dynamic playlist created by the students themselves. Participants took turns playing contemporary hits and local tracks from their home countries, turning the lunch into a lively cultural exchange. We want to thank everyone who cooked, shared their music, and made this afternoon a memorable celebration of MUP’s international spirit.
