Ordering in: After years of looking after her child, a devoted mum spread her wings and started selling Nyonya fare

Wong's nasi ulam is incredibly herbaceous and good from start to finish.

When Florence Wong had her son 15 years ago, she dedicated herself to the task of raising and schooling her child. In fact, Wong (a former English teacher) home-schooled her child for over a decade until he scored a scholarship and went off to middle school.

With her child out of the house, Wong found herself with more time on her hands, so she decided to try something new. And that’s how her home food business The Secret Foodsmith was born.
