The Plate It Forward Crew Is Bringing Not One But Two Game-Changing Eateries to North Sydney

Whether you associate it with lunchtime eats or late nights at the Greenwood Hotel, Greenwood Plaza is set to raise the bar as the team behind Plate It Forward brings two new venues to North Sydney. The pair of exciting openings north of the bridge celebrate feel-good food that affects real social change.

The retail precinct has already welcomed the arrival of Anything But Humble, the second pie shop from Shaun Christie-David and his crew. Plus, a second Kabul Social eatery is on its way to Greenwood Plaza as well, following the overwhelming success of the initial location in the CBD's MetCentre.

You'll find a fusion of culinary inspiration at Anything But Humble, with the presence of bold Mexican flavours alongside subtle Sri Lankan cues and nods to Afghani cuisine — or Australian food at its multicultural best, as the team behind the forward-thinking eateries like South Eveleigh's Coyoacan Social and Enmore Road's Colombo Social defines it.

The soon-to-open sophomore outpost for Kabul Social will bring the flavours of Afghanistan to the lower-north shore. Expect to find an array of menu items dedicated to Afghani-style eats, from the Kabuli burgers and fresh dumplings to build-your-own lunchboxes perfect for North Sydney office workers. The Greenwood Plaza eatery owes its restaurant concept and menu to a collaboration between the Plate It Forward crew and a group of female refugees, so the careful curation of its offerings pays homage to authentic Afghani food.

At the forefront of its ethos, the Plate It Forward crew aims to serve up hearty food that is truly impactful. As a result, every dollar spent at any of the group's venues, including the two new outposts, is donated to a great cause. Anything But Humble passes on its earnings to providing training and employment opportunities to empower individuals with disabilities, while the second Kabul Social eatery will dedicate its practice to providing meals to disadvantaged communities. Every meal purchased will provide a two-meal donation to Afghan communities in need.

And what better way to contribute to long-lasting social change than by sinking your teeth into a flavour-filled and impact-driven meal? The proof is — quite literally — in the pastry. For those seeking to track their contribution, the impact of your purchases is available in real-time — take a look at the digital display while ordering and you'll be able to see the number of donated meals you've provided.

You'll find both Anything But Humble and Kabul Social's North Sydney outposts inside Greenwood Plaza. Anything But Humble is open now 10am–4pm Monday–Saturday, while Kabul Social is set to open in the coming weeks.
