HAPAX — Solstice Special
This June, HAPAX and Pullman Club come together at PLYFA, gathering at the compound in Votanikos, Athens, for a full solstice drift of drinks, open-fire cooking, and sound.
HAPAX is a Paris-based collective working at the intersection of art, design, gastronomy, and music. This gathering marks the passage into the most incandescent season of the year.
Pullman Club is a supper club founded in Athens in 2022 by chef Kostas Pardalis and architect and designer Chrysa Petrochilou. Through a series of pop-up dinners hosted across Greece, Europe, and internationally — in wine bars, art galleries, rooftops, and other intimate settings — Pullman creates gatherings where food becomes a means of bringing strangers around the same table.
Each gathering takes shape through a site-specific approach, where menu, atmosphere, and spatial setting are considered as interconnected elements of the experience. Moving between different cities and venues, Pullman adapts to each context while remaining grounded in a Mediterranean sensibility and a close relationship with local produce.
At the core of Pullman lies the idea of commensality — the act of eating together as a shared social experience. The table is approached as a space for exchange, conversation, and temporary community, where unfamiliar people can, if only for an evening, inhabit a common experience through food.
In this sense, the meal extends beyond hospitality itself, becoming a form of cultural and social encounter.
For culinary purposes and thermal explorations, Ariadne Strofylla and Konstantinos Chatzakis will build a bio-construction grill, channeling a hedonistic refractivity around food through its Typhonian mouth and volcanic belly.
