THE
USUAL SUSPECTS
PART I
THE PLOT
This is a 2-Part Gastronomic Tale.
Aya and Thatha were once known as “culinary magicians”, famous for their over-the-top creations, nostalgic family favourites, and dishes that became legendary.
So we asked them a simple question:
“Tell us the stories behind your greatest culinary creations.”
That’s when chaos ensued.
They both remembered the same creations…
but their recollections of how and why these dishes came to be couldn’t be more different.
Their stories differ so wildly you can’t tell which parts actually happened, which parts were exaggerated, and which parts were, in classic family fashion, completely made up.
Across both Part I and Part II, the same dishes appear,
but each part offers a completely different recollection of how these culinary creations came to life.
To hear both sides, you’ll have to experience both parts…
and decide for yourself who’s telling the truth.
THE EXPERIENCE
Part I is Aya’s world, as she remembers it.
Aya is the whimsical grandmother who lives halfway between nostalgia and daydream.
Her memory is famously unreliable, but her storytelling? Hilariously vivid.
