• Mark Jensen (Red Lantern) - Family secrets
    Aug 12 2022
    One of the beautiful things about a career in food is the ability to immerse yourself in another culture and cuisine. To learn the produce, the techniques, and the way to break bread. For Mark Jensen (Red Lantern) a career in food eventually led to an exploration of Vietnamese food, and with the Nguyen siblings gave Sydney one of its very best Vietnamese offerings.

  • Belinda Hagan (McIvor Farm) - The soil farmers
    Jul 29 2022
    Belinda Hagan (McIvor Farm Foods) and her Husband Jason left their careers on the land to take the reins of a family farm. Although they are farming pigs the Hagan’s consider themselves soil farmers who run pigs across the property to help regenerate the land to create a closed loop system. They grow as much of the food as they can for the pigs, and in turn the pigs help to aerate and turn the soil. It’s an amazing model of biodiversity and healthy land management.

    Australia has one of the most colourful culinary landscapes on the planet.

  • Ian Curley (The French Saloon/Kirk's Wine Bar) - Skin and bone
    May 13 2022
    As a kid Ian Curley saw a career in hospitality as a way to get ahead and change his life. He built an incredible career of influence downunder, and amazing friendships with renowned chefs such as nose to tail king Fergus Henderson, but throughout it all at the heart of everything he does he's been mindful of finding career paths for disadvantaged and less fortunate members of the community too.

    May 6 2022
    A sustainable restaurant model, connecting with local producers and cooking delicious food seems like common place more and more, but for chef Evan Hayter (Arimia) food is an extension of the Arimia story, and in eating what they produce, you become part of his mission to give back to the land that gives so much to all of us.
