Join us in Edinburgh for a very special evening with cookbook author Alissa Timoshkina, celebrating the official launch of her new book, Lozhka.

On 29 October 2026, we’ll come together with our friends at La Cîme for an intimate evening of conversation, food and connection around one big table.

The evening will begin at 6pm with an aperitif and welcome drink, followed by a Q&A with Alissa, moderated by heiter founder & editor-in-chief Katharina Geissler-Evans. You’ll then sit down for a four-course shared meal, cooked by La Cîme’s Anne and featuring recipes from the newly published Lozhka, with Alissa joining you at the table.

With just 12 guests around the table, this will be a relaxed and personal evening, offering the opportunity to meet Alissa, hear more about her new book and enjoy some of its recipes in good company.

Your ticket includes:

- an aperitif + welcome drink

- a Q&A with Alissa, moderated by Katharina Geissler-Evans

- a four-course shared meal cooked by Anne from La Cîme, including starter, main dish & dessert

- a copy of heiter’s recently launched Blooming issue

There will also be the opportunity to get your copy of Lozhka signed by Alissa. If you don’t have a copy yet, you’ll be able to purchase one and take it home with you.

heiter × Shop with No Name: A Coffee Morning for Creatives

Join heiter and Shop with No Name for a relaxed morning of coffee, conversation and connection, celebrating the launch of heiter’s new magazine.

We’ll meet at Shop with No Name, 2A Broughton Place, Edinburgh EH1 3RX, on 11 September at 10:30am.

We’ll begin the morning with a 30-minute breath work session led by Millie of Body & Soul Therapies, before settling in over coffee and sweet treats for a book & magazine swap and some relaxed creative networking.

For the swap, bring along a book or magazine that has had a positive impact on you — something that has inspired you, shifted your perspective, or perhaps simply helped you feel a little more heiter.

Your ticket includes:

• Cortino coffee

• Sweet treats from Krema

• 30-minute guided breathwork session

• Book & magazine swap

• A morning spent meeting and connecting with fellow creatives

Come on your own or bring a friend — either way, we’d love to have you. Tickets are GBP12.50 per person.

Spaces are limited, so book your ticket early to secure your place.

Tickets: £59 – Non-members, £45 – Heiter Society Members

As the year draws to a close and the season turns inward, we invite you to join us for Homecoming in Winter — a morning of warmth, connection, and reflection hosted by heiter.

Begin your day with coffee or tea on arrival, followed by an intimate panel conversation exploring well-being and the art of feeling at home in your body. Writer and PR consultant Lyndsay Kaldor will lead the panel and invite cookbook author Alissa Timoshkina, artist Laura Gee, horticultural therapist Kendall Marie Platt and heiter founder Katharina Geissler-Evans to reflect on how lifestyle, nourishment, self-care, creativity, and community can help us find balance and belonging — especially during the colder months.

During the panel, Alissa will let you try one of her “self-care recipes” from her latest book KAPUSTA and Laura will introduce and guide you through a couple of calming art techniques.

After the discussion, enjoy breakfast and the opportunity to connect with fellow members of the heiter community. Each guest will also receive a thoughtfully curated goodie bag to take a little bit of “heiter” home.

Spaces are limited to keep the morning intimate. We can’t wait to share this cozy winter gathering with you.
