Gerard Chai announces the publication of 'Mum's Favourite Recipes Presented Through a Journey in Time'
SINGAPORE, April 25, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Gerard Chai, in his debut book titled "Mum's Favourite Recipes Presented Through a Journey in Time" (published by Partridge Singapore), offers a collection of recipes uniquely weaved with personal and authentic stories from his Peranakan mother.
Celebrating her 90th birthday, Irene Chai shares her favorite Asian recipes and her life story. Although she is Peranakan by culture, the recipes shared are not specific in genre and the chronicle of her life, family and unique experiences is presented in a chronological journey from pre-war, through marriage, working life, retirement until the present day alongside some historical facts and experiences marking the evolution of Singapore.
When asked what he wants readers to take away from the book, the author states, "it would be good recipes/food with a historical and cultural perspective aligning with snippets into Singapore's past and present. The lifestyle and experiences of an average Singaporean couple whose life journey, challenges and accomplishments are laid bare."
"Mum's Favourite Recipes Presented Through a Journey in Time" will appeal to those who are looking for delicious Asian recipes that have been time tested and made easier for busy home chefs.
