Questionably notable and improvable biography article as my searches found several links at News, Books, browsers and Highbeam with "Janice Wong Singapore pastry chef" but mostly expected coverage and perhaps nothing for a better notable article.

Keep. This is an easy keep. She's a famous chef in Singapore, and her fame has spread to much of Asia. Here are a few examples: [1] from The Star, [2] from The Hindu, [3] from The Hindustan Times, [4] from The Straits Times, and [5] from The New York Times. The last one is a brief mention in a newsblog, but it shows that she's even getting some traction in the US. There are more on Google News and the Singaporean media.

- I fixed up the article a bit and added more sources. Now that her awards are sourced, it should show quite a bit more notability. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 12:23, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
