Press Freedom Matters
We believe that food is more than just something we eat — it carries memories, culture, and the freedom to express who we are.
In recent years, press freedom in Hong Kong has undergone profound changes. Independent voices have diminished, and individuals who once stood for open expression now face long-term imprisonment.
Among them is Jimmy Lai, a media entrepreneur and advocate for press freedom, who has been sentenced to 20 years in prison.
We do not claim to have answers to complex political questions. But we believe that the ability to speak, to write, and to tell stories freely is something deeply human — and something worth remembering.
“Dad is Cooking” started as a small family food truck. Through simple dishes and conversations, we hope to keep sharing stories, connections, and a sense of what freedom once felt like — and could still be.
