Once Upon A Bite
Title Sequence / 2021
Food cannot be separated from the land beneath our feet. The scenery, fragrance, memories of bygone years, all come together into a name, which we call flavor.
Chinese people like to embed their care and concern into food, packing memories into plates and bags, allowing their hometowns to travel with them to faraway places.
The dishes we cook and the meals we savor, are more than just sustenance, they’re a flavor of our stories, our past, our culture and more, a reflection of who we are at our core.
