TimeFlavors: Culinary Time Travel with PartyRock
TimeFlavors: A journey back in time blending culinary heritage with modern tech, reconnecting us with our roots through every dish.
Published Feb 20, 2024
I started this journey because I love food and was super curious about where our favorite dishes come from. Being from Malaysia, where food is a big part of who we are, I wanted to share how food and history come together. So, I created "TimeFlavors" to make learning about old food fun and easy for everyone.
"TimeFlavors" is all about mixing old recipes with cool new tech from PartyRock and some prompt engineering with the help of ChatGPT. This mix lets us bring back ancient meals for you to try out today. It's like a time machine for your taste buds! You get to cook dishes from long ago and learn all about the stories and people behind them. It's not just cooking; it's like going on a tasty trip through history.
This isn't just another cooking app. "TimeFlavors" opens up a whole world of food stories. It tells you about the history behind each dish, making cooking a way to learn about different cultures and times. It's a fun way to make history and cooking exciting.

For example, "medieval bread" or "Victorian desserts." In my case, I was curious about how Nasi Lemak with Fried Chicken in Malaysia was like in 1900.
