The evening blends food and storytelling, offering guests a 3-course halal-sourced meal (not halal-certified due to alcohol being served) while listening to seafarers share personal tales about life at sea. The event includes an appetizer and brief story warm-up, a main course paired with deeper narratives of memorable moments at sea and concludes with dessert and reflections on the impact of the sea. This immersive experience aims to celebrate maritime heritage, connect the community, and preserve the personal stories that shape life on the ocean.
