Happy Families<br />
Recently Potatoes USA conducted a tantalising media and bloggers gathering with the theme<br />
“<strong>Health</strong>y Meals, Happy Families” at Secret of Louisiana, a Cajun-inspired family restaurant,<br />
where the event focused on the nutritional benefits of US Potatoes, and family mealtimes.<br />
As a better testament to the essence of the event’s theme was the presence of three well-known public personalities<br />
who shared their stories of spending time with their children in the kitchen. They were parenting expert & child<br />
developmentalist Ruth Liew (mother of two), well-known dietitian Indra Balaratnam (mother of one) and TV host,<br />
Azawate Zenol Abidin (mother of three) who shared their own recipes. Chef Elvin Goh of Secret of Louisiana<br />
showed his cooking skills with us too.<br />
