Little has been written about the cuisines of Borneo, the fourth
largest island in the world, occupied by three nations, Malaysia,
Indonesia and Brunei. Fascinated by its history, astonishing
biodiversity and peoples, Koh spent four years travelling across
the island to meet some of the myriad communities contributing to
its culinary landscape, from indigenous ethnic groups, like the
Iban, Dusun, Murut, Malays and Banjarese, to settlers like the
Chinese, Javanese and Bugis. The result is the rich, engaging and
kaleidoscopic Tamu: A Guest at the Bornean Table, written as a
travelogue with food firmly at its core. More than just culinary
information and recipes, Tamu also sheds light on the lives,
culture and traditions of the people who make up this fascinating
land. It is also rich with information on the lesser-known
botanicals that form the foundation of the island’s local
cuisines. As with his previous three literary endeavours, this book
is sumptuous with food and location photographs, all of which were
executed by Koh, who also designed the book.
