Overview

Join us at Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery, for a live recording of the Migration Menu as it returns for its second season!

Journey from South Asia to West London through food as Anthropologists Prof James Staples and Dr Luke Heslop (Brunel University London) return with new conversations ahead of their second season of the Migration Menu, exploring migration, globalisation, entrepreneurship, and cultural heritage.

In the series, James and Luke talk to restaurateurs and others about what food from their homeland means to them and why. They explore the rich array of culinary traditions that have made their way from South Asia and been made anew in West London, using food as an entry point to wider discussions.
