TOMATO EGG is a zine that blends the cultural narratives and creative works of the Chinese diaspora in London through the universal medium of food—specifically, the traditional dish of tomatoes and scrambled eggs. This publication not only explores the dish itself, but uses it as a metaphor to delve into broader themes of identity, nostalgia, and home- creating a tangible experience that invites readers to explore the insightful stories shared by Asian creatives based in London.
Designed for both the Asian community and the wider public with an interest in cultural exploration, TOMATO EGG serves as a bridge connecting marginalised audiences through shared experiences and cultural reflections. The magazine's content is accessible to a broad audience as well- featuring interviews, personal stories, artworks, and recipes that allow readers to interact with it on multiple levels—whether they are cooking a featured recipe, relating to the shared experiences, or appreciating the artistic works.
