As part of our Tenth Anniversary online celebrations we raided the archives (ie the google drive) to create a gallery of our past events as a tribute to everyone who contributed their love and energy to the success of our curated dining events.
Thanks to everyone in the online and IRL community for your thoughtful messages, comments and posts on our recent tenth anniversary. It’s heartening to know that we have enriched so many people’s dining experiences of inner city Sydney.
As well as conducting weekly tours over the past decade, we have also produced and curated over twenty food tour event with key stakeholders. Collaborating with City of Sydney, Surry Hills Creative Precinct, Potts Point Partnership, Glebe Business Chamber, Darlinghurst Business Partnership, Be Productions, Paddington Business Partnership, Margot Natoli Events, Australian Design Centre, Good Food Month and Sydney Mardi Gras to create unique dining experiences in retail, gallery and outdoor spaces.
Many different small bars and restaurants in Potts Point, Darlinghurst, Surry Hills, Glebe, Paddington and Pyrmont have supported these events. Some of the businesses no longer exist and some have gone from strength to strength.
Curating a food tour event is always fun and challenging as we seek to introduce our guests to new spaces & precincts.Learning about other small businesses or arts organisations whilst enjoying good food, wine and cocktails from bars and restaurants not usually part of our regular tours.
When an event comes together and everyone jumps on board, its a magical feeling reflected by the wonder on our guests faces when they enter an unexpected room with a fantastic view, brilliant art or beautiful merchandise. A one-off event is fleeting in nature and therefore more appreciated by all who take part when each element is bought together successfully.
Much appreciation to the photographers who contributed their talents to some of these images: twoguineapigs, Dean Hammer, Julie Samerski, James Irvine and Zoe Rollings.
