A Culinary Journey: Upgraded Dinner Helsinki 2022
Here’s a look back at the Upgraded Dinner Helsinki 2022. This special dinner ran the night before the Biohacker Summit, bringing VIPs, speakers, and artists together for an unforgettable meal. It was our first one in three years, since 2019—and this time I brought Yogetsu Akasaka along.
The Upgraded Dinner: An Overview
The Upgraded Dinner lives up to its name. It combines a cooking workshop with a multi-course fine-dining experience. Under award-winning chefs, participants apply biohacking techniques in the kitchen—methods that preserve the quality of ingredients while boosting how well you absorb the nutrients. The dinner we prepared hands-on came out both delicious and nutrient-dense, so you get health and the joy of food at the same time.
The Dinner Menu
The menu was built around local, seasonal ingredients—a real culinary journey.
CBD Spritzer – a refreshing drink to open the evening.
Wild Herb Salad, Berries & Hemp Seed – a nutrient-rich salad with fresh berries and hemp seed.
Tartare, Reindeer Bone Soup & Egg Yolk – a rich tartare pairing reindeer bone soup with creamy egg yolk.
North Sea Fish, Nettle & Kombu – fish caught in the North Sea, finished with the flavor of nettle and kombu.
Sesame, Licorice & Coconut – a coconut dessert with sesame and licorice accents.
Longevity Raw Chocolate – raw chocolate made with ingredients that support anti-aging.
Mushroom Magic – a mysterious mushroom dessert to close the meal.
Each dish was paired with organic biodynamic wine or kombucha, which took the experience up another level.

The Upgraded Dinner is more than a meal. It’s a place to learn, and the VIP guests were all smiles. I was there as a Biohacker Summit speaker, but the best part was sharing a passion for health and optimization with people who hold the same purpose. It became a celebration of food, health, and community—a genuinely meaningful evening.
