Wandering OFF Menu (2)

Long Prawn and food history expert Jan O'Connell, host a cultural 'passeggiata' for MDW guests – a walking meal allowing for a variance in pace, taste, texture, context and historic tales, from the defiance of the dim sim to the once widely popular chop picnic. Food yarns, attached to place and time.

With body and digestion in motion together, convivial culinary rest and snack stops will take place throughout the former Gold Street Precinct. Research and support for this event with kind thanks to local collaborators Molonglo.

The event will pause to recognise that all food grown, shared and consumed here does so on unceded Aboriginal land. And that this place, remains to be an important place to the longest-living food culture in the world, a culture rich in techniques of cooking, trading, farming and preserving. Mob are welcome to attend for free.

Accessibility: This event will be a calm event but hosted in a public space. The event involves a short walk (1km) with limited seating along the way. The path will avoid stairs yet there will be some subtle inclines. Please feel free to reach out to us directly at mail@longprawn.com so we can try our best to accommodate all your needs.
