Celebrity chef Adrian Richardson
A haven for foodies – and anyone else looking for a tantalising and entertaining day out – Bankstown Bites will return after a two-year hiatus due to Covid, showcasing the best of Bankstown’s food and unique culture from 10am-5pm, including food tours and 24 food stalls and plenty of action on Olympic Parade and Griffith Park.
Spoil yourself with fine cuisine from a huge variety of food stalls – Filipino, Indian, Turkish, Asian, Japanese, Mexican, Spanish, Portuguese, Egyptian, Italian and Thai, just to name a few.
There’ll also be a range of great entertainment for all ages.
Celebrity chef Adrian Richardson from Good Chef Bad Chef, along with MasterChef “fans and favourites” contestant Alvin Quah, will be teaching you how to dazzle in the kitchen, before holding a “meet and greet” with fans.
Alvin says he’s excited to be in Bankstown, which he sees as one of the most important places in Australia when it comes to food.
Hoping to be a role model for up-and-coming chefs, Alvin says he creates dishes that everyone can relate to and “it doesn’t need to be complex, it just needs to taste good”.
Mayor Khal Asfour says he’s looking forward to welcoming thousands of festival-goers.
“It’s always been a special event on the food lover’s calendar and we promise to show festival-goers a special range of cuisines, along with a party atmosphere,” he said.
“We’ll have the Singing Chefs, free face painting for kids, carnival rides, as well as ‘kids in the kitchen’ activities for the youngsters.”
The food tours will take you into some of our city’s most unique eateries, with a huge variety of delicious food to taste including the popular La Moosh Bakery Café, Yum Yum Lebanese Pizza and Café Nho.
Other activities include the BBQ cooking school, Bankstown Arts Centre Open Day, performances by TAP (Talent Advancement Program) students, 15 Stars, Antoine Duo and much more!
