Had just finished some detailed illustrations and was trying to wind down by Facebooking & imagining more cooking adventures on your blog's cookery books articles. Chef Norman Musa, it is!<br /><br />Shall check out Zakiah Hanum :g<br />As for your prowess in Bahasa, well, language is like the back of your hand, right?<br /><br />Shermay Lee was that young lady who wrote "The New Mrs Lee's Cookbook" some years back, the Mrs Lee concerned having been mummy to Lee Kuan Yew. As I mainly survive on hand-me down (mainly South & Southeast Asian) recipe books from the 1970s onwards, I find her precision a blast 'cos suddenly all becomes clear, ingredients-, preparation- and cooking-wise! When in Spore in Dec last year, I stumbled upon her cooking school, Shermay's Cooking School. However, it was a Sunday and the school was closed. Bet it's expensive to attend, though :pArtsVeronicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12328859265743056785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912730.post-1207810690147669872010-04-10T08:28:19.241+08:002010-04-10T08:28:19.241+08:00i haven't come across Sherman Lee's recipe...i haven't come across Sherman Lee's recipes, i'm afraid. and this is not Chef Wan (love his books too) but Chef Norman Musa. different people.<br /><br />my favourite malaysian cookery writer is Zakiah Hanum - use her two books all the time (yep, i can follow recipes in malay!)bibliobibulihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16456636355933524132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912730.post-39486359453853769732010-04-09T12:45:00.335+08:002010-04-09T12:45:00.335+08:00On his notes for novices to Malaysian food or cook...On his notes for novices to Malaysian food or cooking altogether as well as on available substitutes, is he as comprehensive as Shermay Lee? I find that I kind of have to depend on her even when using a Betty Yew. So, if Chef Wan is as good or better than her, his book will definitely be on my list.ArtsVeronicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12328859265743056785noreply@blogger.com
