The dinner club collective TDD was founded in 2007 by Gulsum Guler and Inci Guler. TDD events usually took place in temporary spaces, for example in studios, where a restaurant atmosphere was created for the duration of the event. All team members are artists working in the fields of photography, education, graphic design and visual arts, united by a passion for food and the creation of public and interdisciplinary dialogues.

The publication flavours & friends – containing 108 recipes for 40 people each – was first self-published by TDD Bon Appétit and reprinted in 2025 by BOM DIA BOA TARDE BOA NOITE in a third, smaller piccolo edition. The publication is a tribute to creating communities and cooking together. Based on the recipes, the book returns chronologically to the 27 dinner locations from 15 years of supper-clubbing and at the same time documents the displacement of artistic practice in urban space.
