We're very excited to be hosting Flavours of Opera Kitchen, a 2-day foodie celebration by the harbour
As part of DNSW’s Sydney Solstice program and in partnership with Aperol and local artisans including Gelato Messina, the food festival will feature 10+ food and drink stalls highlighting our Italian and pan-Asian offerings.
Walk around the venue and explore the pop-up food stalls serving Italian favourites like charcuterie cured meats by Pino's Dolce Vita Fine Foods, pickled antipasti by Delizie Dal Cielo and fresh buffalo mozzarella by Vannella cheese on bruschetta. Those with a sweet tooth won't be able to go past the Gelato Messina cart without trying their famous Italian flavours.
Our Japanese-inspired stalls will be offering a mix of savoury and sweet flavours for you to try. Local cheesecake supplier Baked By Mish will be serving Japanese-flavoured cheesecakes. Plus there will be bite-sized pork katsu and egg nori sandwiches and an array of authentic Japanese seasonings by The Good Grub Hub to mix up poke bowls.
A wine expert from Alpha Box & Dice will be hosting experiences like Italian wine varietal masterclasses plus there’ll be plenty of Aperol Spritz, Peroni and Asahi beer and non-alcoholic cocktails on offer to compliment the cuisines.
There’s going to be fun for the whole family with roving entertainment, magicians, DJs, photobooths, balloon twisters for the kids and the chance to get your portrait drawn Japanese manga-style in front of the harbour bridge.
Tickets are $30 including entry and 4 food selections.
We look forward to seeing you there!
