4.0 out of 5 stars Essentially the same as "the food of singapore", December 21, 2011
This review is from: Authentic Recipes from Singapore: 63 Simple and Delicious Recipes from the Tropical Island City-State (Authentic Recipes Series) (Hardcover)

If you like periplus cookbooks and already own "the food of" version of this book, then reconsider buying this one. The new "authentic recipes from" series is just a rehash of the "food of series" with a few subtle changes such as relacing obscure recipes with more recognisable ones, bigger font and format, less on the history and some updated pictures.

Overall I kind of like the recipes in the new books more as there is less filler and odd recipes, but I do like the layout and format of the older hardcover "food of" books. So if you own "the food of" and want to get this book, be prepared to sell it off as you will only end up doubling up 90% of recipes between the 2.

This is another great publication from the 'Authentic recipes from ..." series. I especially like this volume as Singapore is one of the world destinations I would like to visit on a culinary tour. My wife was lucky enough to visit Singapore this year and I gave her this book to take with her. She found it a great introduction to the cuisine and helped her to focus her food explorations so she could later tell me about the great meals she experienced.

Great recipes! Especially love the satay and chicken wings recipe, and the hainanese chicken rice. Unfortunately I can't say much about the rest because I don't eat seafood, but for the recipes that I've tried, they're absolutely wonderful!
