Parramatta Lanes Announces Huge 2016 Foodie Lineup
Find Efendy, Young Henrys, Butter, Archie Rose, Burger Project and more taking over ten Parramatta laneways.
Blossoming foodie fest Parramatta Lanes has just announced their heaving 2016 lineup and, like a rich, cheesy arancini sent from the heavens, it's stuffed full of the best, brightest and most filling industry folks. You might want to start fasting now because come October it'll be a smorgasbord.
Headlining the festival are the team behind Efendy in Balmain, including head chef Somer Sivrioglu, who'll be serving up contemporary Turkish fare. Neil Perry's Burger Project has burger lovers covered with his broad menu of burgs, while Surry Hills hip-hop/sneaker fiends Butter will be offering up their particularly beloved brand of fried chicken (it's unclear at this stage whether sneakers will also be on the menu).
Brew-wise, you'll find gin wizards and cocktail artists Archie Rose shaking up some crisp bevs, and Young Henrys will be serving their famous craft beers. For dessert? KOI Dessert Bar, the project of Masterchef alum Reynold Poernomo, will be whipping up his treat/work of art creations. Also on board are local favourites Saffron Restaurant, Courtney's Brasserie, The Emporium, Temesek Knafeh, Adora Handmade Chocolates, StroopBros, N2 Gelato, KayterCon and Paper Street Ice Cream.
The festival is taking place across ten of Parramatta's inner city laneways and squares. And there will (of course) be a food truck food court because no festival is complete without one.
Parramatta Lanes runs from October 11-14 across ten Parramatta laneways. See the festival website for more info.
