    About us

    We are Agus Ekanurdi and Frida Antony, and we have been happily married since 2011.

    'Cook Your Way to Love & Harmony' is our first book, written in honour of Agus' late father, So Kong Hoo, who passed away in 2012. He taught Agus the power a home-cooked meal has on both relationships and lives, and we want to share this special message with you.

    You will feel inspired, uplifted, and warmed; just like we've been throughout our own relationship and marriage journey. Inside our book, we share some of the most intimate moments of our lives and the home-cooked meals and recipes that helped shape our relationship to where it is now.

    From the Reader

    Agus & Frida have written a book that will apply to everyone - no matter what age, or what type of relationship. Fundamentally, it shows a married couple through the ups and downs of their marriage, and how cooking, a simple yet caring and deliberate act, can strengthen and focus any bond. For those looking to work on relationships in a subtle, and natural way, it's a must read - the recipes are also a lot of fun, mostly covering South-East Asian cuisine. James C. Steadman

    From the Authors

    This book is about our personal journey in home cooking, a journey which we hope will inspire others to cook as a tool to improve their relationships. We hope that people will relate to the stories in this book, and see how relationships between spouses can grow and develop through care, communication, & of course, cooking.

    From the Inside Flap

    She loved the way I talked with firm and encouraging words. I loved her sparkling eyes and face full of smiles and fun. In 2010, I proposed and Frida, my Ahbee, accepted.

    At the time, I believed that marriage was a simple thing- just get to a wedding and then live together under one roof. Every weekend go to the cinema and malls. Shop together, eat together, and laugh together. That's it. Nothing complicated. I said to myself, I will just have fun with it.

    Frida accepted, and we were married in May 2011. Soon after, I learned the hard way that marriage was not as simple a thing as I'd thought it would be...
