The Asian Masters are back in town to celebrate Asia’s Finest Gastronomy with numerous workshops, dining experiences, and exclusive promotions with some of the best restaurants in Singapore. To kick off this gastronomical celebration, "The Flavours of Asia” culinary workshops were held at ToTT Cooking Studio where members of the public picked up culinary tips and tricks from 8 leading Asian maestros including Chef Violet Oon, Chef Kenjiro ‘Hatch’ Hashida, and Chef Leong Chee Yeng.
