Seven plates containing different dishes are lined up one after the other on a counter. Behind each plate is a sign bearing the name of the dish.

The ‘HerzGerichte’ for the summer term 2026 have been finalised!

Back in May, we asked you to share your favourite dishes for the canteen menu – in keeping with the motto „Love goes through the canteen“! We’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for all the brilliant recipes we received!

From the recipes submitted, our panel of culinary experts selected seven finalists, who prepared their ‘heart-warming’ dishes themselves last week during the cooking session at the FORUM on 18 June and then presented them to a select panel of judges.

The result was clear: all the ‘Heart’ dishes won over the final judging panel!💚

That’s why we’re presenting these seven ‘heart-warming’ dishes to you for the first time during the week of 6 to 10 July 2026 on the canteen menu at Mensa Academica and FORUM! Do pop in so you don’t miss out on the delicious ‘HerzGerichte’!

P.S.: You’ll find some exciting behind-the-scenes insights into this year’s cooking session on our Instagram account over the next few weeks: @studierendenwerkpb!

As soon as the next StW PB recipe competition begins, you’ll find more information here on how to take part and so on: HerzGericht Recipe Competition – Paderborn Student Services – Your journey with us!
