About

My Long Table is a curated collection of over 130 recipes and family favourites — ranging from Indian classics to Singaporean and international hits — crafted by the talented chef, cookbook author and former restaurateur Dhershini Govin Winodan. 

With creative food matching ideas and elevated one-dish meals, My Long Table serves as the perfect keepsake for those looking to master Singaporean and South Indian cuisine, expand their culinary repertoire for hosting, or simply indulge in the nostalgic flavours of Asia. A section of the book also delves into international recipes inspired by Dhershini’s travels to Spain, Vietnam, Thailand and Morocco.

More than just a cookbook, My Long Table is a culinary immersion of Dhershini’s personal journey through food, where each recipe is accompanied by a heartfelt musing or cherished family memory.
