The series is produced and created by filmmaker Eric Khoo, who is a foodie. He also created the HBO anthology series Folklore 1 and 2 in 2018 and 2021, respectively, as well as the award-winning Food Lore in 2019.
“Singapore is a delicious melting pot of mouth-watering dishes, from street vendor woks to high-end Michelin-starred restaurants – a reflection of our multicultural society and heritage,” Khoo said. “Through food, I want to share with the rest of the world the diversity of what this small island has to offer.”
Food Affair With Mark Wiens is launching a three-year partnership between the Singapore Tourism Board and Warner Bros Discovery, which will see the two parties collaborate on a suite of original entertainment and lifestyle content, including drama series, animations and reality shows, all in the offer to highlight and inspire travel to Singapore.
