Maybe, we’re doing it wrong. But perhaps not in the way that we think...]]> http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2013/11/what-should-bloggers-do/feed/ 8 http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2013/10/10-fantastic-fairfield-eats/ http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2013/10/10-fantastic-fairfield-eats/#comments Fri, 18 Oct 2013 08:05:41 +0000 http://www.corridorkitchen.com/?p=5944 I recently had the pleasure of being a guest of Noodlies and The Fairfield City Council for #fairfieldfeast, a food tour for food bloggers showcasing the Western Sydney suburb of Fairfield. All meals were free, and all meals were also, unequivocally, bloody amazing. As tomorrow is Fairfield’s ‘Culinary Carnivale’, I thought it was time to share my list of must-eats for the 2165 postcode. Although less well known than its Viet-food-packed neighbour, Cabramatta, Fairfield is actually the most culturally diverse suburb in Australia, as a stroll around the restaurants and shops in the Fairfield ‘city’ show. Fairfield boasts Iraqi, Afghani, Chilean, Lebanese, and Lao cuisines, just to name a few. From the city, it’s a 45 minute train trip, and everything delicious is right by the station, making for a totally walkable multicultural feast. For me, #fairfieldfeast was like eating Christmas lunch three times at six culturally diverse tables. I enjoyed every single bite. Here are ten ace fairfield eats from the places Thang, Mel, Simon, Josie, Lee Tran, Suzi and Cindy got to visit, so you can have your own little #fairfieldfeast.]]> http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2013/10/10-fantastic-fairfield-eats/feed/ 4 http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2013/04/pigeonhole-gatherings-vegopoltuck/ http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2013/04/pigeonhole-gatherings-vegopoltuck/#comments Fri, 19 Apr 2013 08:11:27 +0000 http://www.corridorkitchen.com/?p=5342 There was a time not long ago (pre-Corridor Kitchen) when I wondered if I had lost the ability to come up with ideas. Seems crazyhorse now, but not all that much was going on and it seemed like not all that much ever would be. It’s obvious to me now that ideas don’t come from nowhere; creativity isn’t bred in a vacuum. Ideas spawn ideas spawn ideas, until one day you look at your calendar and there is literally not a spare space left. And ideas often involve more than just you and your brain; they involve other people. When I met up with Katie at The Rag Land what seems like aaaaages ago (but really it was only January), it was a lot like when Elise told me her idea for a cookbook and The Potluck Club was born. It was a meeting of the minds in the truest sense, both of us at a loose end, talking about what we could do, what we could make, together. Because that’s all creativity really is - doing and making things. We talked about so many things over those few weeks, but we kept coming back to the idea of gathering together, and of people (not brands or buildings or money or even food) being the essence of a good party. And so Pigeonhole Gatherings was born, Swah designed us the perfect logo, and the rest is history.]]> http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2013/04/pigeonhole-gatherings-vegopoltuck/feed/ 5 http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2013/03/the-national-multicultural-festival-2013/ http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2013/03/the-national-multicultural-festival-2013/#comments Thu, 14 Mar 2013 22:34:09 +0000 http://www.corridorkitchen.com/?p=5223 The National Multicultural Festival, and every year I am oh so glad I did. This year it ran from the 8th to the 10th of February, and with 50 new stalls added to the lineup, I was curious to see where they’d fit them all... ]]> http://www.corridorkitchen.com/2013/03/the-national-multicultural-festival-2013/feed/ 2
