Welcome
The brand new Sydney International Food Festival, presented by Citi, will unfold across October, 2009.
It's a celebration of our amazing food scene: from restaurant dinners to markets, street festivals and open-air eating, the best regional produce and the finest fine dining.
A major highlight is the much-awaited World Chef Showcase Weekend (Oct 9 -11) – bringing together Sydney's biggest culinary stars as well as chefs from some of the best restaurants in the world.
All the favourites from Good Food Month will return, including Hats Off Dinners, Let's Do Lunch, the Night Noodle Markets and Hands-on cooking classes.
There will be community get-togethers, debates, tours and lots of surprises.
Join the feast this October and sign up for regular event updates through the Sydney Morning Herald's e-newsletter, Foodie News.
