For the first installment of our Soup & Steam series, we’re serving SARAP with Phoebe Tran of Bé Bếp and Francis Yu. Sarap means delicious pleasure, and we’re bringing that spirit into the heat with an herbal brew inspired by the Vietnamese practice of xông hơi, where fragrant herbs are steamed to cleanse and revive. Sauna tickets will include the herbal steam, and soup will be sold separately to the public. Menu to be announced soon!

Using the sauna as a tool in grief/death/re-birth work sauna guests will be invited to respond to death-informed journal prompts and build a collective altar. Guests are encouraged to offer objects to charge or transform at the altar, or you can simply enjoy the company of each other. Sauna tickets will be $15 with a maximum capacity of 12.
