FEAST FOR GOOD! Come and join us at our Annual Refugee Week event, celebrate our love for great food and music. You will get a 3-course dinner* from talented refugee chef, Sangee's Kitchen (Malaysian), and a welcome drink. You will also be treated to some Tamil Kuthu dancing!  

We're also donating a portion of the ticket sales to Jesuit Refugee Services Parramatta, a charity that provides support to refugees and forcibly displaced people, to ensure that they will be able to live with dignity.

There will be a Raffle Draw on the evening too, the proceeds from the raffle tickets will go to the fundraiser of First Nations Response, a grassroots Aboriginal Women-led organisation that was founded in 2020 during the COVID lockdown era to provide culturally appropriate support and urgent food relief to the Inner-West and Inner-City of Sydney mobs. There are amazing prizes up for grabs, such as a hamper from us, a $120 skincare hamper, cookbooks from celebrated chefs, a photography session, Oomami Chilli Oils, and delightful candles from Nonna's Grocer. 

Limited spots, our events always sell out so don't miss out! Ticket sales close at 12pm AEST on Tuesday 20th June.

Thank you to Navitas Skilled Futures for co-sponsoring this event and a big thank you to the City of Parramatta for making this event a possibility.

*The lunch menu is gluten-free. The meat that will be served is halal. Also, there's a vegetarian option. I'm sorry we can't cater to other dietary requirements.
