Hi all,
Its been some time since I wrote here. Its not easy maintaining your own blog when you have to manage social media accounts as part of your work too. This post is actually an introduction to my current professional work. I am fortunate to be part of a great community project that does wonders for our taste buds. I bet you will really be jealous with this part of my job.
I am part of a team that organises walking tours as part of a social enterprise project. This project is one of the initiatives of The Benevolent Society which is one of the oldest charities in Australia soon to celebrate 200 years of community service. The tours aim to promote the positive image of suburbs that are otherwise considered disadvantaged by focussing on their rich cultural diversity and food traditions. It creates training and employment opportunities for locals and also helps to promote small local business.
Its a community project with a very Tasty touch!!. A lot of fun and a great way to learn about different cultures through food.
If you are in Sydney, you must come to one of the food tours and progressive dinners. Each walking tour has a minimum of 6 stops, includes a sit-down lunch and is a true case of Taste indulgence as the participants go about the day tasting and sampling. and even get a take home bag of goodies, samples and recipes!!
All net profits from the tours are reinvested in community development. So eat your heart out for a Tasty social cause!!
You can help to support this initiative by joining us on facebook, following us on twitter and visiting our blog and sharing this information within your network.
Here are just some of the appetising shots of the Taste indulgence that is part of our tours. Hope to see you soon at a Taste Food Tour!
