Taste of Sydney

The second annual Taste of Sydney festival has arrived. A moveable feast of Sydney's best culinary talent, 16 restaurants are involved and you'll be able to taste signature dishes from each of them. Guillaume Brahimi will be making his famous blue swimmer crab and coriander mayonnaise sandwiches, Giovanni Pilu will be dishing up risotto with Crystal Bay prawns and zucchini and a warm chocolate fondant with vanilla bean ice cream will be on offer from Matt Kemp. And that's just for starters.

Get interactive with the Gourmet Traveller Taste Kitchen and Wine Theatre where you'll watch cooking demonstrations and wine talks from the country's best and brightest vinuous and culinary talents. Or head to the chef's table where experts will answer all your foodie questions while you have a casual glass of wine.

Make good use of everything you learned at the Taste sessions and head to their producer's market to buy local produce from 100 different stallholders. And just to put the cherry on the cake, all of the cutlery, plates and cups are made of 100% biodegradable cornstarch and sugar cane compounds. Wow!
