Vision
-One Loved Meal with Loved Ones-
The founder, Lina, has a dream of creating a place that offers an ideal dining experience for terminally ill patients, particularly those with cancer. This special meal is not meant to be a last supper, but rather a source of hope with each individual meal. To fulfill this vision, Lina aspires to address four aspects: (1) location, (2) company, (3) environment, and (4) menu. She believes that food is more than just nourishment for survival; it holds a significant influence and presence in our memories.
Our aim is to improve the lives of patients and their families, enhancing their overall quality of life. In the future, we hope to expand our efforts to support individuals with diseases other than cancer.
Story
Lina's father loved cooking and never compromised on food. He used to say, "Don't skimp on food. Eat good food because it's always good for your body." In 2010, he was suddenly diagnosed with three months to a year and a half to live due to cancer. During his illness, he tried to eat whatever he loved, but chemotherapy took his precious sense of taste. After a year and a half battle with cancer, he passed away.
Lina and her father enjoyed eating together, and his fight against cancer and eventual passing became the most painful experiences of her life. She felt helpless and wanted to alleviate her father's pain, but cancer made her feel powerless.
Her father chose to spend the rest of his life at home as much as possible. He disliked hospital food and preferred food from home even when he was in the hospital. This experience inspired Lina to create a place that provides loving meals, not hospital food, for cancer patients facing terminal illness and their families.
