5607 Rainier Ave S, Seattle, WA 98118

Sometimes you can eat a dish by just reading a menu. When history, cultural nuance, and storytelling are weaved into a string of courses to be digested body and mind—it can be on a rare occasion much more. So yes, Words do Matter. For an evening celebrating Seattle Arts & Lectures’ Words Matter 2021, Archipelago will be designing a curated Balikbayan Box experience of courses celebrating Filipino American heritage and culture. In the comfort of your home, expect to not only unpack simple easy to prepare meal kits to accompany your viewing, but a series of words, pictures, poems, and art to serve as a backdrop for a beautiful evening. Our menu is inspired by some of our favorite Filipino American books, quotes, poets and words.
