The Chefs’ Table is the culmination of our Food Series that began with Foraging, Forests to Farm and finally to a discussion among chefs that will explore culinary creativity around the tropics. This roundtable examines similarities and differences in cuisines across Asia. Two locally based chefs will speak on their experiences using local ingredients that have influenced the development of local cuisines. With the discussion centred on the identities in Asia, the speakers will share their perspectives on changing diets in the region and their role as chefs in safeguarding and promoting forgotten recipes and local ingredients.
