Growing Up in a Nonya Kitchen provides a rare and insightful view into the daily life of a Peranakan family harking back to the early 20th century.

Sharon Wee grew up in a Peranakan household in Singapore. A prior career in marketing/advertising took her to Hong Kong, Shanghai and Beijing, and she is now based in New York.
