This Podcast Live is just one highlight of the South Asian Heritage Late. Enjoy an evening of creativity and culture with:
The Migration Menu is a podcast series exploring how food, identity and memory shape the South Asian diaspora’s experience in West London. Created by anthropologists Dr Luke Heslop and Professor James Staples (Brunel University), the show delves into stories of nostalgia, authenticity and entrepreneurship across communities from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, the Maldives, and Afghanistan.
Through conversations with restaurateurs and cultural voices, the podcast uses food as a lens into broader questions of belonging and adaptation. Their second season launches with this live recording at Pitzhanger.
James Staples is a Professor of Social Anthropology at Brunel University of London, and co-host of The Migration Menu podcast. His research – which he carried out in South India and, more recently, in West London – includes a focus on the anthropology of food. His most recent book is sacred Cows and Chicken Manchurian: The everyday politics of eating meat in India. You can find James on Instagram @themigrationmenu and @jimbobbin1966
Luke Heslop is a Senior Lecturer in Social Anthropology at Brunel University of London, and co-host of The Migration Menu podcast. He has conducted field research in Sri Lanka and in the Maldives, as well as in West London on restaurateurs and entrepreneurship. His forthcoming book, In a Merchant’s House, draws on his work in Sri Lanka and is out later this year. You can find Luke on Instagram @themigrationmenu and @lukewhatyoudone
