Flavors synonymous with boldness. Full of character and adventure for the senses
Aromatic Flavors from Vietnam. Inspired by clean and bright flavors of a traditional noodle bowl, tender top-round steak is infused with the citrusy punch of fresh lemongrass and lime. Served over a bed of delicate vermicelli noodles and hearty vegetables, this dish is the ultimate recovery meal.
Key Notes: Citrusy, Savory, Refreshing.
Our most visually stunning dish originated from Malaysia, specifically crafted to mirror the deep blue gradients of a Mission Peak twilight. Grilled turmeric chicken skewers drizzled in a velvet-smooth peanut sauce paired with our unique jasmine rice naturally steeped in butterfly pea flowers. A visual tour de force and sophisticated flavors. <3 <3
Key Notes: Nutty, Earthy, Fruity.
The Herbal Soul of Thailand. A lush, aromatic masterpiece designed for the trails. We’ve balanced the rich creaminess of coconut milk with green chillies, galangal, and kaffir lime peel. Paired with high-protein tofu, crisp vegetables and fragrant jasmine rice, this curry delivers a vibrant, herbal heat that warms you from the inside out.
Key Notes: Aromatic, Creamy, Vibrant.
It started with a curiosity.
Then, it became a journey.
In my early hiking days, just getting to the top of Mission Peak was a struggle. I wasn’t fit enough yet, or I’d miss the sunrise by just a few minutes. But when I finally made it and saw those incredible colors in the sky, everything changed. I realized that if I could do this, I wanted my daughter to experience it, too.
That started a lifelong journey of taking her outdoors as much as I could. We went on many backpacking trips together, but the food was always a letdown. We really missed the taste of a home-cooked meal and the quality of real, good food.This led me to start creating my own freeze-dried meals — food that my daughter, my friends, and fellow hikers would actually love to eat.
Today, my daughter hikes Mission Peak right by my side.
Now, I want to bring that same feeling of a great meal and a great journey to you. This first line is an invitation to experience the authentic flavors of Southeast Asia to celebrate my Malaysian heritage. I made these to excite your senses and feed your curiosity, so you can enjoy a great meal no matter where your adventure takes you.
ABOUT
Marcus Wong, Founder
I'm a Bay Area local, and I've spent years exploring the beautiful trails all over California. Hiking and backpacking are a huge part of my life-feeding my curiosity and finding peace for the soul. From the quiet fog on the coastal bluffs to the rugged, sun-drenched paths of the high Sierras, being out in the wild is where I feel most like myself.
I’ve spent more than 20 years working in busy kitchens, learning my craft from some of the best chefs and restaurant operators in the world. Building a brand from scratch hasn't been easy, but if it were, I probably wouldn’t be doing it. I still have a lot to learn, and I’m so excited to bring you along as I grow.
This is just the beginning, and I can’t wait to see what’s next.
