Tour Vannella Caseificio & Lunch at Fich (16 October)

$99.00

Join me at the Vannella Cheese caseificio (dairy) in Marrickville for a behind-the-scenes tour and tasting.

We’ll meet Vito Minoia who celebrated 50 years of cheesemaking this year and now works alongside his son Giuseppe and granddaughter Martina in the state-of-the-art caseificio they opened in 2022.

We’ll watch as they cook cauldrons of hot whey to reveal clouds of delicious ricotta and stretch curd into luscious silky mozzarella that’s then filled with creamy stracciatella and tied with a knot to make their famous hand-crafted burrata.

After a guided tasting and visit to the Vannella shop to stock up on fresh cheese, we’ll head to Petersham (10 minutes’ drive) for a casual seafood lunch at Jose Silva’s restaurant Fich.

I was lucky enough to attend one of Roberta's Duck and Pinot walks with a group of friends. It was a fantastic afternoon and I can't recommend it highly enough. Roberta is great company and a fantastic guide to the best food experiences Sydney has to offer.

Roberta organises really enjoyable and relaxed dinners where you not only get to eat delicious food from a wide range of cuisines, but also find out more about the cooking techniques and produce with the chefs and producers. I highly recommend 'Be Inspired' dinners.

Went on the Duck & Pinot tour wonderfully hosted and curated by Roberta - thank you. There was a lot of duck to eat and other dishes as well. Plus I learned about wine and the people who run the restaurants. An event for multiple types of occasions. Can't wait for the next one.

What an amazing morning touring Sydney Produce Market with Roberta - meeting the growers & agents of some amazing produce & tasting things along the way. My favourites were the red & yellow prickly pears, jujubes, longans, & fresh pistachios. Next was Gozleme for breakfast in Auburn then a tour & tasting at Gima Turkish supermarket & Harkola Middle Eastern warehouse. Highly recommended.

I recently joined Roberta with friends & colleagues on the Duck & Pinot Walk - incredible afternoon visiting 3 duck restaurants, each very different to the other. Superbly organised! Roberta's first hand knowledge of each dish and her relationship with the restaurant owners made for an extremely enjoyable & memorable time. Would recommend this for families, work functions or just friends getting together.
