Review –
If you have read my reviews in the past you could probably tell that I am a
sucker for a good food documentary. A documentary that explores the origins of
a dish, or the people that make it, or the cultural context it exists in. Well,
today we get a show that does all three with Street Food. When you think of street food, what first comes to mind?
Well for a long time for me it was that kebab shop that is open to late in the
morning or that one chip store I found in Sydney that one time. However, as I have
started to travel I have found it is much, much, much more than that, and this
is what we will be exploring today.
So to set the scene, today we delve into the street food cultures of eight different
cities across Asia. Some of these locations are quite well known like Bangkok,
Osaka, Delhi, Seoul, and Singapore, as well as some less well-known places like
Chiayi, Yogyakarta, and Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon). We see the foods that mark
each of these cities and the people that make them. We discover the Fish-head
Stew of Chiayi, the Crab Omelette of Bangkok, or the Putu Piring of Singapore.
But more than this we explore the cities, their history, their relationship
with food, and what it means for the people who make/eat it.
