গল্প - Golpo. Simply mean STORY.
Across languages and scripts, the word shifts shape, but its meaning stays the same. A story carried from one voice to another.
The Golpo Collective is a story-driven platform where food is both the anchor and the bridge. Golpo connects strangers, archiving memories and celebrating the cultural threads we carry across borders.
ADDA — Supper Club & Pop UP
A table of stories.
In Bengali, adda is more than talk — it’s the art of gathering. Over food, tea, and unhurried conversation, strangers become familiar and friends feel like family.
dda brings the warmth of home cooking, memory, and cultural storytelling to the table. An inclusive place where no one leaves hungry in body or spirit.
01/08: Latest ADAA Gallery
In August, Golpo Collective hosted its latest Adda with @Tinni, bringing together six strangers around one table for an evening of family-style eating.
The menu was a loving nod to the streets of Bengal — crisp fritters, spiced rolls, tangy chaats — paired with homely recipes passed down through memory.
Between plates and refills, stories flowed: of kitchens left behind, markets back home, and the small, familiar tastes that anchor us wherever we are.
Golpo Print
The publishing and archival arm — turning recipes, oral histories, and cultural research into zines, anthologies, and visual narratives. Where food writing and memory work meet on the printed page.
Tinni Ray
Founder & Experience Curator
Grandchild of refugees, raised in Bengal and shaped across cities from Kolkata to Berlin, I create tables where food becomes a bridge between strangers.
Through Golpo Collective, I share meals, stories and spaces that honour memory, migration, and the women who taught me to feed with care.
Upcoming events.
Get in touch.
It all begins with a story.
Do you have an idea for us?
Maybe it’s a recipe passed down through generations. Maybe it’s the memory of a street-side snack in the city you left behind. Or maybe it’s the simple act of inviting strangers to share a table.
At Golpo Collective, we believe the way you share your story — through food, conversation, and community.
