INTRODUCTION
Welcome to Asia! We are as passionate
about food as we are with the law. And
no one knows local food better than
those who walk the ground.
In our Rajah & Tann Asia Food Guide
series, our lawyers are delighted to
share with you their favourite dishes
in the heart of the cities where we
operate and give you a taste of the
delightful food the region has to offer.
We bring you to savour the most
authentic Asian food including under-
the-radar eateries that only locals will
frequent. This is our home ground, our
advantage.
