How did the food of widely despised and distrusted migrants become arguably Australia’s favourite cuisine? How did renaissance architecture, wartime internment, espresso bar scandals and Sophia Loren feature in this?

Food historian Dr Tania Cammarano will answer these questions while guiding cultural and culinary explorers on a walk from Melbourne’s Royal Exhibition Building into the heart of Carlton.

Includes coffee, biscuits, glass of wine and antipasto. Registration essential.
