“Food can make you happy just by looking at it.”
This is what Peace from Food means to Thi Thi, a member of the ARI team from Myanmar, working in FEAST (Food Education and Sustainable Table).
Thi Thi’s drawings of vegetables and flowers reflect her hometown’s rich food culture and her heartfelt appreciation for the beauty of cuisine.
“The cook’s feelings reflect directly in the taste of the food.”
Her message connects you, your food, and your loved ones. “First, it’s important that you, yourself, feel it’s delicious. Because that connects to the joy of the person who eats it.”
The kitchen is a place where creativity and culture are shared, and where peace is born.
Small acts of kindness through food become the power to build peace in the future.
