25 Feb 2013 - Malaysian cookbook wins at the 2013 Gourmand Awards. This is none other than the "Food for Your Eyes" cookbook co-authored by Dr Kenneth Fong (consultant ophthalmologist and retinal surgeon) and Ms Goo Chui Hoong (dietitian and culinary instructor at At 19 Culinary Studio). We are so proud of Ms Goo who teaches healthy cooking classes on request at our culinary studio. This was her first attempt in co-authoring a cookbook with her husband, Dr Fong and it was an effort well worth the praise.
The cookbook won the Best in the World Cookbook (Health & Nutrition category) at the renowned World Gourmand Cookbook Awards held in Paris, France on 23 Feb 2013.
"Food for Your Eyes" is more than a cook book as it also highlights basic facts about common eye diseases, including age related macular degeneration and how food can help to prevent or reduce the risk of blindness. The cookbook contains over 50 recipes from breakfast to dinner and desserts, all home-made recipes created, tried and tested by Ms Goo. Recipes are simple and easy to read. Instructions are easy to follow and it shows how eye-healthy ingredients can be incorporated into everyday meals.
The cookbook is retailing at RM39.90. If you would like to get a copy, do get in touch with us at 016-377 8236. If you would like Ms Goo to conduct a healthy cooking class for you, please e-mail us: at19culinary[at]yahoo.com.
