And this is exactly the theme that HBO Asia explores in its new anthology drama series: Food Lore.<\/p>\n<h3>So what\u2019s it all about?<\/h3>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=WvaLbECIP70<\/p>\n<p>Premiering on HBO GO and HBO on Sunday, 3 November at 10pm, Food Lore consists of eight hour-long episodes set over multiple countries in Asia. Helmed by Eric Khoo, the award-winning Singaporean filmmaker famed for the likes of Ramen Teh and 12 Storeys, each episode tells a story around food and its cultural significance to the protagonists.<\/p>\n<p>Directed by some of Asia\u2019s most endearing storytellers, including Erik Matti (Honor Thy Father) from The Philippines; Phan Dang Di (Bi, Don\u2019t Be Afraid) from Vietnam; and Takumi Saitoh (Blank 13) from Japan, for anyone who loves to learn more about culture, human behaviour and, of course, food, this should definitely be on the watch list &#8211; #supportlocal.<\/p>\n<h3>HBO Asia\u2019s Food Lore review<\/h3>\n<p>Following on from <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/hong-kong\/folklore-review-hbo-asia-tv-show\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Folklore<\/a>, where HBO Asia dabbled in the world of the supernatural, this new anthology series visits The Philippines, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. While I can\u2019t go into too much detail about each story, I will say that the first in the series, Food Lore: Island of Dreams was my favourite of the three episodes I had early access to.<\/p>\n<p>Telling the story of Nieves, played beautifully by Angeli Bayani, a woman from a village in The Philippines who moves to Manila to work as a domestic helper so her children can attend university, we get a wonderful glimpse into how different people can be, even when they\u2019re from the same country, and how quickly we adapt to new situations.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_169211\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-169211\" style=\"width: 1399px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-169211 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/10\/FOOD-LORE-review-HBO-Asia-Island-Of-Dreams-The-Philippines.jpg\" alt=\"Food lore Island of Dreams\" width=\"1399\" height=\"933\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/10\/FOOD-LORE-review-HBO-Asia-Island-Of-Dreams-The-Philippines.jpg 1399w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/10\/FOOD-LORE-review-HBO-Asia-Island-Of-Dreams-The-Philippines.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/10\/FOOD-LORE-review-HBO-Asia-Island-Of-Dreams-The-Philippines.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2019\/10\/FOOD-LORE-review-HBO-Asia-Island-Of-Dreams-The-Philippines.jpg 1024w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1399px) 100vw, 1399px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1399px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1399\/933;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-169211\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Island of Dreams tells the story of Nieves and her family in The Philippines<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Director Erik Matti manages to capture the spirit of the village when Nieves returns home for the annual fiesta, and the cinematography emphasises the vast difference between town and country.
