Memories...

I have peasant tastes when it comes to food. I've also enjoyed hawker food and snacks. Something to do with instant gratification? Anyway, this book (I misplaced my precious and well-thumbed copy) is a testament to the visual pleasures of street food. I mean Elizabeth David and Peter Mayle aside, I never realised I could get so much pleasure from a food book.

Very aesthetic and interesting

This is one of the most interesting books about food i have ever read. It will be of interest for any food lover.
