Overview

Embark on a captivating journey into the heart of Peranakan culture with this beautifully crafted novel by Roy Phang. For Emily Chan, food is family, culture, and history. But when her father, the legendary Chef Michael Chan, passes away, she inherits more than just a restaurant. She inherits a legacy-and a challenge. Galangal, the family's Peranakan restaurant, has long been a beacon of authentic flavours and storytelling. Now, it's on the brink of collapse. Torn between preserving her father's traditional recipes and modernising to survive Singapore's ever-changing culinary scene, Emily must navigate the stormy waters of ambition, loyalty, and personal growth. With her fiery sous chef Jarrod Leong by her side and her fiancé Joe Prescott advocating for bold, risky changes, Emily's kitchen becomes the battleground for more than just great food. Will she stay true to her family's roots, or will she reimagine tradition for a new generation? As flavours clash and emotions boil over, Emily discovers that sometimes, the greatest ingredient is the courage to fight for what you love. Perfect for readers who cherish stories of food, family, and finding one's place in the world. Includes a glossary of Peranakan terms and recipes to immerse you in the culture!
