Room 01
Optic Vault
Observation & Classification: Every process begins with identification. At the Optic Vault, the archive system displays signature Vietnamese spices through large-scale simulations and data terminals. This is a crucial step in selecting the correct ingredients and establishing the foundation for creating a complete bowl of Pho on this new planet.
Room 02
Aroma Vault
Verification & Extraction: Scent is the most accurate identifier of food. The Auroma Vault’s system of conduits and diffusers extracts aromas from selected spices. This is a mandatory olfactory verification step to ensure the purity and concentration of the ingredients – the decisive factor for a successful broth in the process of creating a bowl of Pho from point “Zero.”
Room 03
Haptic Chamber
Connection & Crafting: With a digital mapping system and interative stations, the Haptic Chamber provides detailed information on sourcing regions, cultivation processes, and production techniques for both raw ingredients and finished products. Through touch, you will understand the nuances of soil and processing methods – the key factors that create the depth of flavor for a bowl of Pho on this new planet.
Room 04
Sonic Relay
Resonance & Activation: Sound is the rhythmic pulse of the culinary process. Come to the Sonic Relay, where through an audio transmission system, you will directly experience authentic frequencies from the kitchen: the roasting of spices, the crisp chopping of ingredients, and the gentle simmer of the broth. This step recreates the cooking tempo, allowing the senses to memorize and synchronize manual techniques to achieve the perfect balance for a bowl of Pho.
Room 05
Omni Core
Integration & Completion: This is the final destination of the heritage reconstruction journey. After gathering and verifying all data on ingredients, sounds, and aromas, the Omnic Core is where the Pho-making process is finalized. Here, all senses converge to witness the manifestation of a complete bowl of Pho. This is not just a dish, but a testament to the enduring legacy of Vietnamese culture on this new planet.
