Guests were treated to a tasty array of
Chef Janice Wong's creations.
Led by Singapore's own Janice Wong, chef-owner of 2am: dessertbar, in
collaboration with Peter Gordon from The Providores and Tapa Room, the event
featured modern, Singapore-inspired gastronomic delights.
A new generation of culinary trailblazers like Janice Wong is leading the
evolution of Singapore's street food from its humble heritage to its
reinvention into an innovative, international, yet distinctly Singaporean
cuisine that tastes authentic and is visually spectacular.
Guests were treated to dishes such as Lemongrass-infused Laksa Dumplings, Sweet
Salty Popcorn with Yuzu Caramel and Blood Orange Snowballs, which were
available exclusively at the Singapore Takeout pop-up kitchen in the Riverside
Walkway, owned and managed by Coin Street Community Builders, at Southbank,
London.
Janice Wong is a graduate from the prestigious Le Cordon Bleu in Paris, Janice
has worked in some of the world's best restaurants, including Wylie Dufresne's
WD50 in New York, Alinea in Chicago and Thomas Keller's Per Se.

Often called Europe's father of fusion cuisine, Peter Gordon embraces
ingredients and methods from the Pacific Rim and far beyond. The chef and
co-owner of The Providores and Tapa Room in Marylebone Village and the new
Kopapa in Covent Garden, Peter is also the man behind six cookbooks, numerous
TV shows, a range of food products and two restaurants in New Zealand.
In addition, he consulted for the highly successful UK chain, Gourmet Burger
Kitchen, and the critically-acclaimed Public in New York.
A total of 25 selected members of the public were given a chance to get
up-close and personal with Janice Wong in her 45-minute cooking demonstrations
on June 10 in which she revealed her recipes for dishes such as Chilli
Chocolate Corals.
After London, the Singapore Takeout will continue its culinary adventure to
Paris, followed by Moscow, New York, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Delhi, Dubai and
Sydney.
