Success in the Peranakan Food Business

The world’s best secret food is the Peranakan cuisine. It is, at once, sweet, sour, bitter, salty, spicy and rich in oil.

Peranakan food started as the Chinese food brought by merchants from the coastal regions of China, when they married into the local Malay coastal families, who had a cuisine of fresh fish and fresh vegetables.

The mixing of the two cuisines was the Peranakan food, that was consumed by the families of the rich and the powerful, and who could afford to ask that the best fish that were caught, the best pigs that were slaughtered and the best fruits and vegetables picked were offered to them.
