Discover the Meaning of “Have You Eaten Yet?”
In many Asian cultures, love is not always expressed in words; It is felt through the warmth of shared meals and the thoughtfulness behind every dish. “Have you eaten yet?” isn’t just a question, it’s how we say “I love you.”
This theme becomes the visual heartbeat of the festival, reflecting how food is a universal language where love is shown through gestures: the way we prepare meals for loved ones, the pride behind serving a beloved dish, and the joy of eating together.
Step Into Mise en Place @ Dempsey Hill
This year’s central hub, Mise en Place @ Dempsey Hill, is where food, culture, and lifestyle come together. Bring your family and explore this open-to-public space that will serve as the festival’s all-in-one experience centre. Don’t miss the Asian debut of Zumbo Desserts, led by celebrity chef Adriano Zumbo.
