Sydney Film Festival: Gourmet Cinema (With Six Course Dinner)

@ Dendy Opera Quays

$180 p.p.

Gourmet Cinema, the Sydney Film Festival’s (7-18 June) perfect pairing of film and food will this year present the Australian premiere of Barbecue by Adelaide filmmaking duo Matthew Salleh and Rose Tucker

A culinary and cultural exploration of the barbecue traditions across the globe, the film will be paired with an exquisite six-course gastronomic journey to locations explored in the film at The Meat & Wine Co following a screening at Dendy Opera Quays.  

“The film is an epic, succulent celebration of the tradition of barbecuing across the world: from South African braais and Texan pitmasters to a New Zealand hangi. Australian filmmakers Matthew Saleh and Rose Tucker travelled the globe to document barbecues in a diverse range of communities,” said Sydney Film Festival Documentary Programmer, Jenny Neighbour.

“From the Swedish engangsgrill, to refugees opening a sharwarma shop in a camp on the Syrian-Jordan border, the film shows that barbecuing isn’t just about the food,” she said.

All about the food, however, is The Meat & Wine Co’s six-course international barbecue feast featuring signature dishes from the Middle East, Japan, South Africa, USA, Argentina - plus dessert - with each course matched to select Eden Road Wines.

Communal seating at the Gourmet Cinema meals encourages shared conversations and experiences of the film and food presented. Film-only options are also available.

Sydney Film Festival also offers a range of Dining Delights with restaurant partners. Dining Delights provide great savings on regular menu prices at a delicious diversity of venues within easy reach of Festival screening locations.
