To celebrate the Australian Culinary Archive project at the Powerhouse, we look at food highlights Australia has to offer.
Sydney is known for its delicious variety of food and the Powerhouse is bringing you makers, creatives and chefs in this Powerhouse Late for exclusive demonstrations, workshops, tastings and experiences.
