-

Abrand-new digital experience reimagines the Asian Food Channel beyond television with new features and a modern look. Discovery Asia Pacific is unveiling the Asian Food Network (AFN), an evolution of the Asian Food Channel, the No.1 English-language Lifestyle channel in Southeast Asia.

The channel embraces a digital-first approach curated for its four million mobile-first community. AFN promises a seamless digital and linear experience that offers entertainm­ent, utility and community for Asian food lovers. Asianfoodn­etwork.com provides a trove of tested recipes, cooking tips, stories on Asian food cultures and a growing set of features that will power their passion for food and cooking.

Viewers can engage with well-loved ambassador­s from Southeast Asia, such as Singapore’s Sarah Huang Benjamin, Malaysia’s Ili Soulaiman and Sherson Lian, and the Philippine­s’ Anton Amoncio, as well as Chef Ngo Than Hoa from Vietnam, Rinrin Marinka, Yuda Bustara and Janti Brasali from Indonesia. AFN will also feature favorite chefs and personalit­ies from Northern Asia, like Debbie Wong from Hong Kong and Frank Striegl, the well-known ramen expert of Japan.

Online content will focus on the latest dining trends and conversati­ons, led by an exciting roster of food-trend hunters, including Matthias Rhoads from the Philippine­s, Joyce Ng and Magdalene Chow from Singapore, ensuring that foodies stay ahead of what the Asian food world has to offer. Singapore’s Charlotte Mei is Asian Food Network’s resident nutritioni­st.
