Gelato Messina's Soup Kitchen Is Coming to Sydney
You won't find boring ol' tomato soup in these cans.
Messina in a can. Nothing says novelty food quite like it. And since it made its debut at Melbourne's Royal Croquet Club back in January 2015, the ever-innovative team at Gelato Messina are finally bringing their Warhol-inspired International Soup Kitchen to Sydney.
While Warhol's original cans would send you into crippling debt, Messina's little tin artworks are set to be much more affordable when they go on sale at the first-ever incarnation of The Hills Food Fest this weekend. Four tasty-sounding gelato sundaes will be on offer from Messina's own soup kitchen stall, adorably encased in a bespoke soup tin. Choose from Black Forest Bisque (chocolate fondant gelato, cherry jam, kirsch cream, kirsch soaked sponge), Faux Pho (salted coconut sorbet, kaffir lime marshmallow, lychee meringue, chilli cashew crunch), Zuppa Duppa (hazelnut gelato, strawberry preserve, pistachio crunch, amaretti biscotti), and American Chow Down (peanut gelato, cream cheese gelato, oreo cookie crumbs and pretzel crunch).
You'll find the Messina International Soup Kitchen at the the festival, which is happening at Rouse Hill's Australian Brewery this Friday, Saturday and Sunday. They'll be ladeling out the goods alongside fellow nosh wizards Bao Stop, Knafeh, Happy as Larry and Hoi Pinoy.
The Hills Film Fest is happening Friday, June 24 from 5-10pm, Saturday, 25 June from noon - 10pm and Sunday, 26 June from noon - 9pm. For more information, visit the Facebook event.
