by Lim Tse Wei
With wit, candor, and a philosopher’s eye, Lim Tse Wei transforms the act of eating into literature. These essays shimmer with inventive metaphors, sharp humor, and deep reflection – but what stays with you is the humanity. In his hands, sambal belacan, quarantine meals, and grand hotel banquets all become mirrors of memory, community, and meaning. This book is a luminous gathering of a singular voice, as thoughtful as it is unforgettable.
- Khir Johari, The Food of Singapore Malays
Every page sparkles with wit, humour and heart. Revelatory, inspiring and brutally honest. I could not put this down. Oh...the recipes are pretty damn good too!
- Denise Fletcher, How to Cook Everything Singaporean
Little Perfections romps through the hawker centres, home kitchens, and restaurants of Singapore, tasting everything and chatting with the cooks.
Eating guide, portrait, cookbook, confession, this collection is an insider’s tour of Singaporean food – and Singaporean society. In a country where food is identity, how do we decide what our food is worth?
