Chefs told stories of spices to The Golden Spoon judges.
From magic of Indian
spices
The
movie began with a mysterious scene: seashore at night, an older and a group of
children in Indian traditional white saris murmured.
Each
girl took turn to pray it out loud that she would save her life for spices and
would not need any love. After that, those girls walked on burnt charcoals by
their bare foot as a maturity rite.
Each
girl would bring their knowledge and magic of spices to new lands, such as
Paris, Los Angeles, San Francisco, or Hong Kong to lengthen the existing deep
story about Indian spices.
In
transition, one of the girls really grew up and become owner of a beautiful
huge store of groceries and spices in western America.
Miss
World Aishwarya performed excellent acts of passionate and cherish touches with
her colorful grains of spices.
Individual
stories about how spices heal wounded minds, how to cook egg plants, or how to
smash sea salt, cinnamon, and anonymous powders to treat wounds turned “the
owner of spices” into Goddess of beauty – legendary Tara.
Figure
Tilo brought many different stories about different lives in her world of
spices, where every day appeared a new spice, a new scent, a new color, and
even a new characteristic.
After
all, she totally fulfilled her role as Asian ambassador of spices in a new
modern world. Speeches, dances, and movie effects indirectly introduced
delicacy and the depth of a whole Asian culture of spices to audiences.
