This fascinating and insightful volume introduces readers to food
as a window to the social and cultural history and geography of
Singapore. It demonstrates how the food we consume, the ways in
which we acquire and prepare it, the company we keep as we cook and
eat, and our preferences and practices are all revealing of a
larger economic, social, cultural and political world, both
historically and in contemporary times. Readers will be captivated
by chapters that deal with the intersections of food and ethnicity,
gender and class, food hybridity, innovations and creativity,
heritage and change, globalization and localization, and more. This
is a must-read for anyone interested in Singapore culture and
society.
