Antipasto platters, bread and butter, a loose leaf salad and a dessert platter were provided to all by Laissez Faire Catering. Guests were asked to prepare and bring a main dish that represents their culture and to share their provenance story with like-minded food lovers.

“Provenance tells the story of who we are, who our parents are and our family tree,” Pete Evans told Gourmantic during the event. “What is wonderful about Australia is the multiculturalism. As you see today, there’s some food I’ve never tried before. This is what it’s all about, embracing where you’re from and your family traditions as well.”

Australia’s Longest Reserve Table was held on Saturday 27th July between 12:00pm and 3:00 pm at National Maritime Museum in Darling Harbour.
