While South Asian cuisine might be synonymous with Tamil cuisine in the minds of some Singaporeans, a closer look at the food that is cooked in our kitchens, appears on our menus and eventually served on our tables will reveal a network of origins far more wide-ranging, complex and intertwined than we ever could have imagined. ๐๐
In this workshop led by Dr Pallavi Narayan, a 2023 Jalan Besar Fellow at Sing Lit Station, participants will engage with the nuances of identity and belonging that naturally arise when South Asians make their home in Singapore. ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฃ
