Yes, there was food !
Guillaume treated us with pasta and pesto, and there was also salad,
beers, cafe, tea, and dessert (vanilia chia cream with stewed rhubarb)
Almost everything was house made, so it was a bit of a food hackathon too
:-)

That's awesome, but, was there food too? :)
Thanks for all your hard work, good job!
