JJ Kitchen

Restaurants serve a function of mental health recovery in Chinese culture. Acting as an I'Ching diviner of fortune, artist Xiyun Xu presents a game-like performance at JJ Kitchen, a Chinese restaurant in Brooklyn. Participants get suggestions and lucky food foreseeing via I'Ching fortune-telling and table chat. This project aims to keep people's boredom away and catch their eyes on unexpected foods.

There will never cease to be ferment in the world unless people are sure of their food.
