The essays in this collection are the author’s contemplations on Singapore through the lens of food. They are as much about men who enjoy cooking as they are about women who are expected to cook. They are also about Singapore and its identity and development. Some of the things it surveys include Zi Char menus, Home Economics curriculums, unassuming kitchen/cooking tools for making signature dishes, and local food or recipes.
