An engaging study that draws from a rich and previously unstudied repertoire of Singaporean history. Tarulevicz provides a valuable framework for understanding how a diverse migrant society can use food to map a sense of collective identity. --Mark Swislocki, author of Culinary Nostalgia: Regional Food Culture and the Urban Experience in Shanghai<br>


An engaging study that draws from a rich and previously unstudied repertoire of Singaporean history. Tarulevicz provides a valuable framework for understanding how a diverse migrant society can use food to map a sense of collective identity. --Mark Swislocki, author of Culinary Nostalgia: Regional Food Culture and the Urban Experience in Shanghai Nicole Tarulevicz's Eating Her Curries and Kway is able to locate yet another lens for deciphering race, postcolonialism, and identity in Singapore: food culture... The Singapore neophyte will find it pleasantly readable, but the serious cultural scholar will also benefit from Tarulevicz's steady stream of insights and fresh perspectives. --The Journal of Asian Studies
