Curry and Can Tuesdays: Justin Narayan Takeover
2021 'MasterChef' winner Justin Narayan is taking over Camperdown's weekly $20 curry-and-can deal for one night — with a specially curated wine list as well.
Overview
Recently reborn Camperdown stalwart The Lady Hampshire has already cemented itself as a charming no-frills pub in the first few months since it reopened under the guidance of PUBLIC. The Parramatta Road haunt boasts a sunny courtyard, a killer live-music program and a tasty house lager — plus former Baba's Place chef Brendan King in the kitchen, who is continually striking a balance between the affordable and the inventive with his pub menu.
As part of King's weekly wheelhouse of eats, he hosts a curry and can night at the pub every Tuesday. The promotion offers patrons a loaded plate of King's latest curry creations and a can of beer or cider for just $20. While the weekly deal is usually enough to have you venturing out for a midweek meal, things are being taken up a notch on Tuesday, July 18.
King has enlisted the help of his longtime friend and 2021 MasterChef winner Justin Narayan to take over the kitchen for one night.

Narayan will be whipping up a Fijian-Indian chicken curry with chapati, masala potato and coriander green chilli chutney, available for $20 with a complimentary can of beer or cider. He'll also be cooking up a cheesy version of The Lady Hampshire's popular samosa spring rolls, and creating a gulab jamun and cardamon ice cream as a post-dinner treat.
Rounding out the night's offerings will be a few drops from Narayan's vino brand Acceptable Wine. A special vino list ranging from prosecco to pinot noir has been curated to complement the night's menu.
"When Brendan called and told me about Lady Hampshire's curry and can Tuesdays, he had me at curry," Narayan says. "We've both come so far from when we first met — I'm getting ready to open my first restaurant and Brendan's a Head Chef, so when we get the chance to cook together it's always going to be something extra special."
