SEASON 1 - AMSTERDAM, NL
Telling the Stories of Culinary Greatness
Telling the Stories of Culinary Greatness
A New Stage for Culinary Storytelling.
Think of it as the prelude to a meal.
We film what happens before the plate.
The place, the people, the prep.
And connect your restaurant to thousands of fans, food lovers, and industry insiders through our online brand.
In other words…
A polished mini-documentary, cut into 4 short videos (30–90 sec) for use across your and our social channels.
And become part of the first season of Bordwerk, where we highlight fine dining restaurants and their stories on Instagram, TikTok, and beyond.

Before this, we built digital products used by over 100,000 people a month. We scaled through short-form video and social reach with over 40 million engagements in the last year. Now we’re applying those same tools to fine dining, to spotlight the kitchens that deserve to be seen and remembered.

The chapters
We break down the story behind the plate. One chapter at a time. From the restaurant’s roots to the ingredients, space, and prep. We show how it all comes together.
The chapters
Our work is guided by four core values that ensure the highest quality and impact in every project we undertake.
1. The Origin
Every restaurant has a beginning. We start with the story behind the name, the people, and the idea.
2. The Palette
It all starts with ingredients. We show what’s chosen, where it comes from, and why it matters to the kitchen.
3. The Space
The setting shapes the experience. We capture the layout, the light, and the feeling before service begins.
4. The Craft
This is where everything comes together. We follow the work, the focus, and the process behind the dish.
