In Person : Somalian Camel Lunch - Auburn, Sun 28 Jun, 11:45am

It's time for another Sydney Kitchen Catchup lunch adventure!

This time we'll be exploring the flavours of Somalia and Ethiopia with a special lunch at Salam Mandi. The feature dishes will be Camel Mandi (camel with spiced rice) and Camel Soup, alongside a selection of other delicious Somali and Ethiopian dishes to share and enjoy together.

Somali and Ethiopian food cultures have some deliciously unique flavours and approaches, and I'm looking forward to sharing a little of that experience with you during the meal.

And while I've enjoyed meals at Salam Mandi before and can vouch for both the delicious food and the warm, friendly service, the camel dishes will be a new experience for me as well. So this is one we'll be discovering together.

Optional Extra : For those who enjoy keeping the conversation going after lunch, anyone who is keen is also welcome to join me afterwards for an optional visit to a local baklava house. We'll be able to relax over tea or coffee while sampling a wide array of delicious Turkish sweets and treats. As always, this part is completely optional.

RSVP to secure your place at the table.

As many Sydney Kitchen Catchup members often tell me, one of the best parts of our gatherings is having the chance to chat with fellow food lovers about cooking, baking, ingredients, techniques and culinary discoveries. Whether you're just starting your kitchen journey or have years of experience behind you, there's always something new to learn and share with this wonderful group.

Looking forward to sharing another delicious and memorable food adventure with you all!

Cheers,
Natia

Kitchen Catchup Code of Conduct

The Kitchen Catchup community is a space for all members of all skill levels to, both in person and online,
>> safely discuss, cook and eat all types of foods from around the world,
>> be treated fairly, equally and with respect by all members, and
>> socialise & learn in an environment free from all forms of harassment and discrimination.

If you do not care for a certain ingredient, dish, cuisine or cooking technique (we all have these!), there is no issue with mentioning that you don't like it; however, please avoid negative reactions (verbal or otherwise) that could make other members in the group feel uncomfortable.

Given the limited number of spots available at our events and as we often have a waitlist, we also have a zero-tolerance policy for no-shows. If you can't make it any longer to an event, update your RSVP so that someone else doesn't miss out.

Thanks for helping to keep our community amazing!
