FatBoy is a diary and a cookbook. But more than that it’s a greedy attempt to document Asian food and identity. The recipes in this zine are learned from both family and the world at large. They use food as a medium to explore themes around identity, belonging and creative expression.

From Fatboy Zine on issue 6: Multi-Heritage

We speak to sculpturer and artist Hannah Lim who uses design style chinoiserie to explore the balance of European and Asian culture. Ramael Scully, head chef and owner of Scully St. James. using his diverse heritage to create incredible food. Christina Chan, owner of Choy Division Farm. An upstate NY farm that specialises in growing Asian vegetables in the US. And Chef Abby Lee of Mambow, one of Londons most successful restaurants.

Our recipes in this issue can arguably be explained as having multi heritage. Using ingredients or techniques that are a result of migration, but are now considered true to the culture that created them.
