In the ever-evolving urban landscape, a city transforms, donning myriad masks, yet slyly preserving elusive remnants of its former self, tantalizing the inquisitive gaze of wanderers. As we wander along its thoroughfares, these remnants metamorphose into labels, nomenclature, digital archives, contractual agreements, legal proceedings, and licensing permits, obfuscating their origins into near obscurity, rendering them almost unperceivable to our senses.
Yet, for Philomena Collective, we see the perfect setting for a transformative intervention poised to breathe life into one of the most underappreciated forms of artistic expression: dining. A homage to the countless souls who have partaken in such a mundane act throughout the city’s ever-shifting epochs. Drawing inspiration from the rich past of Griffintown, notably the Horse Palace Land’s historical legacy, we embark on a journey to deliver an immersive gastronomic encounter that seamlessly melds moving imagery, artistic expression, and community involvement.
Our mission is a conscious curation, one that champions locally sourced produce and fosters the emergence of burgeoning local talents. Through this blend of history, artistry, and culinary innovation, we invite you to embark on a sensory voyage that bridges the past and the present, offering a glimpse into the soul of this ever-transforming urban tapestry.
