#049: What does ‘preserving hawker culture‘ actually mean?


Listen Later

We've spoken quite extensively about preserving Singapore's hawker culture, not just here on Tapau Please, but also online, with input from government agencies as well as thought leaders in our local foodscape. But when it comes down to the nitty-gritty, what does it actually mean to preserve a food culture?
This question is fleshed out in this episode, by breaking down what preservation of a food culture entails. Is it simply passing down recipes? It is educating people on its roots and heritage? Is it about the government injecting funds in ways of rebates and infrastructure?
