Great window into Singaporean culture.

Reading this warmed my heart on this brisk autumnal morning in London – thank you! A perennial family favourite is the one in BTK Boon Tong Kee Kway Chap, not the best as kway chaps go, but it is always well prepared, and there is a kind of comforting deliciousness in its quotidianness (but it is not mediocre! There is a distinction). A recent favourite is Cheng Heng Kway Chap and Braised Duck Rice in Holland Village hawker centre run by two elderly sisters... exquisite, with some of the most delicate kway I have had the pleasure of eating.

I love this - the distinction between the quotidian and the mediocre is greatly, greatly under-appreciated. Thank you for reading!
