Philip Campbell Beatson Newington (1888–1964) was the author of a cookery book celebrating Malaysian food, something he conceived while starving as a prisoner of war at the Sime Road Camp in Singapore between 1942 and 1945. During his incarceration, Newington founded a Gourmet Club, Good Food, for him and his fellow prisoners; the Club celebrated, in precise detail, cooking and eating imaginary meals. A book of his experience and the recipes remembered and created, Good Food, was published in 1947. Always curious of the culture of his adopted home he was, before and after World War II, a contributor to journals on his experiences of local customs.
