Our family
Our Story
[PLACEHOLDER] One family, one kitchen, and the food we grew up eating.
Before Bangkok
INTERVIEW: Which part of Istanbul? Who cooked at home? What was the dish that meant "we are all here"? When did they come to Bangkok, and why?
An object they brought from Istanbul: the copper pot, the tea set, a photograph. Shot on the table, natural light.
Why we opened
INTERVIEW: What made them decide? Was there a moment, a meal somewhere that was wrong? Who said "we should do this"? What was the hardest part of the first month?
The room empty before service, chairs down, light on. Quiet. Wide shot.
What happens before you arrive
INTERVIEW: What time does mother start? What is made from scratch every single day? What takes the longest? What would she never serve?
Hands working: dough, a knife, a pan. Close and tight. No faces needed.
