A most unusual kitchen

(Updated: )

Deep-fried hot dogs and chicken nuggets – that's what nursing home residents were served. Until Ang Kian Peng who leads Soup Restaurant Group’s corporate social responsibility came up with the idea to serve them homecooked-style meals... prepared by prison inmates and folks with disabilities.

About the show:
