Tóm tắt

"Analyses cultures of eating together in Malaysia and Singapore. It explores everyday spaces, such as street stalls, hawker centers, and coffee shops. Reflecting on these as sites for people's "different" culinary exchanges, the book captures resonances of national, ethnic, cosmopolitan and multicultural identity"-- Provided by publisher.
