A love letter to the summers that shaped us.
This one smells like curry, bleach, and chutney music. And it sounds like my father laughing from the belly. This one remembers the way it used to be.

“This is not just chai. It’s a pause. A permission. A reminder that rest doesn’t need to be earned—it needs to be honored.”
Guyanese food isn’t just something you eat—it’s something you live.
It’s the land, the ancestors, the heat, and the laughter at the street corner.
This piece is a love letter to the flavors that shaped a nation, born from struggle, migration, and unshakable joy.
Come take a bite of the story.
A shared meal, a shared memory—this is how we remember.
