Welcome to Freya’s experimental kitchen concept!!
Took an edible (pun intended hehe) on my international flight and then recreated the set from the movie, The Menu.
I dig horror in the way that I enjoy storytelling, but because I’m lowkey a baby, I always try to use humor to cope with my scaries. I enjoyed The Menu be used it felt like it was made for the way that I watch horror movies- finding the most laughable absurdities to deal with grimness within reality/perceived reality.
Had so much fun designing this build!
Tried to place as many Easter eggs as I could come up with, lmk what you can find!
My 13 year old cousin came back from a date with her boyfriend and said, "I can't wait to grow up and spend sunday afternoons with him." At first, I wanted to laugh (after all they're just 13), but I remember being 13 and having the world in my hands. I remember getting excited to talk to someone about my dreams and wishes, and how happy these daydreams and fantasies made me. There's this innocence you can only have at 13 and the world rises and falls and crashes and burns every year... until you do not think about quiet sunday afternoons.
So I asked her about the date and heard her giggle about bubblegum flavored ice cream, and how much she loves this little life. I think she makes me love it too.
