When it comes to meals, boy do we take comfort in the repetition, the routine, traditions and table arrangements, all made in the name of gathering and feasting.

The conversations that blossom while planning, cooking, eating or doing the washing up are what we remember when we journey back through the memories of our favourite-ever dinners – memories triggered by the sautéing of onions or fragrant spice mixes. Once an eye-roll-inducing chore in our childhood households, we now celebrate the significance of coming together and socialising over the dishes we can’t get authentically anywhere else.

Enjoy complimentary food from Levant Kitchen, served as a buffet, before the screening starts.
