Open Rice? Open Table!

Pull up a stool at our shared table, set for an exchange of recipes and memories centered on rice. Come and explore rice through its flavours, memories and everyday rituals.

The table is laid with rice grains and bran, fermented accompaniments, recipe cards and printed tableware. Share a dish or condiment you love with rice, or your own way of making it, in writing or drawing. Prompts about taste, smell, place and memory will help start the conversation: Who introduced you to this flavour? When do you eat it? What does it remind you of?

Swap recipe cards with someone else and discover their rice accompaniment, opening up conversations about family habits, regional food traditions, and the flavours we feel comfortable, or hesitant. Every contribution joins the table as it grows. You can also browse a zine of photographs, stories and cultural reflections on rice and fermentation.

Rice sits at a crossroads of so many lives, and this session centres on conversation, writing and drawing. Bring a detailed family recipe, a simple everyday pairing, or just a memory of eating rice. No cooking or drawing experience needed. Come add to our memory table on rice.
