About the Author:
Dr. Leslie Tay is a medical practitioner by day. What Leslie does when the sun sets is something all Singaporeans are very familiar with: he eats, he shoots, he posts. See his recommendations of eateries and street food at ieatishootipost.sg which was voted Asia Pacific's best food blog.
Review:
This book makes an important contribution to Singapore's food heritage, not least for being a guide to the best of the best hawker stalls --Peter A. Knipp, Publisher, Cuisine & Wine Asia magazine and organiser, World Gourmet Summit

(Tay) seems to sincerely champion local hawkers and their dying trades, hence this book which acts as a kind of repository of facts and folk tales behind Singapore's distinctive and much loved local cuisine... (C)apturing the essence of local food that no one had really done in such detail before. --The Business Times, Singapore

(T)he distillation of his massive catalogue of hawker reviews into a coffee table book makes perfect sense, considering that there has never been such an extensive document of our hawker heritage. Until now. --The Silver Chef
