RNR DOCS: Kitchen Stories, Syrian Food

Jan O'Hearn has 30+ years experience working in restaurants and lived in the Middle East for over a year, which led her to the sponsorship of a Syrian family back home in Toronto. Matched with a family of five from Damascus, Syria, combined with a passion for Syrian culture and food, Jan found herself at Newcomer Kitchen.
Newcomer Kitchen, a kitchen space and social environment for government-sponsored refugees, brings women together once a week to cook, share recipes, and create lasting bonds.
Food photography is important in this project, as it promotes and brings awareness to Newcomer Kitchen through social media. In this video, Jan uses a Canon Rebel T6i to snap macro shots of their culinary adventures.

As a proud Syrian, the Canadians have given us back dignity and the right to live our lives! Good on you Jan for supporting this beautiful initiative!
