Overview

My Kitchen Rules alum Arrnott Olssen is bringing a flavour-packed Fijian feast to Deus Cafe in Camperdown for just one night in April. The Kana Club Pop-Up is hitting the breezy outpost from 6pm (with 5.30pm arrivals) on Saturday, April 13 with a four-course menu centred around local produce and dishes drawn from Olssen's childhood.

At a previous Kana Club Pop-Up, guests were treated to a menu that traversed everything from Fijian fish curry to sweet potato gnocchi with a sea urchin emulsion. While the array of eats for this iteration hasn't yet been revealed, Arrnott's tavu tao — which consists of masala-spiced chicken wings paired with tamarind sauce and yoghurt, plus a serving of hummus dahl — is one of the cafe's current specials for the week.

Olssen says dahl was regularly served in his house growing up because it was hearty and affordable. He's taken this staple of his upbringing and worked it into an inventive new dish that also pays homage to the Middle Eastern communities of Punchbowl, the first Sydney suburb he lived in.

Tickets are available for $89, and there will be a paired drinks menu available for purchase on the night.
