Critics Review
Food has the power to stir memories, bring people together, transport you to new places, and, most importantly, take you home. Julie captures all of this within these pages. This book is a true joy. – Yotam Ottolenghi
If you want to discover the hidden secrets of one of Asia’s great cuisines, there is no better guide than Julie Lin’s mouth-watering book. It is delicious Malaysian comfort food at its best. – Ken Hom, CBE
Julie’s book is quintessentially her. She is a bright star in the firmament of British cooks. She does what all great chefs have always done in the most magnificent way. She uses her life, her experience and her huge heart to create dishes that warm you from the top of your head right down to the bottom of your toes, at the same time inspiring one to reach just that little bit further in the kitchen and try something that we may never have done before. Fabulous (of course). – Andi Oliver
