Process

We speak with lovers, families, and communities to learn their shared history.

Referencing art, literature, food history, and cultural traditions,
we translate people’s stories and experiences into
memorable dishes and dining experiences.

These are then presented as a meal,
designed to celebrate the
meaningful moments
in their lives.
