MISTER JIU’S at LEE HO FOOK
Melbourne Food and Wine Festival celebrates 30 years of collaborative community showcasing excellence, after being unable to be held for the last 2 years - we are grateful as an industry to be able to share our ideas, collaborate on menus and showcase the best of Melbourne with the rest of the world. We have always been a collaborative environment at Lee Ho Fook. Being able to host guests again and show them the best of Melbourne whilst giving them a platform to showcase their style of hospitality in our amazing city has been very rewarding.
Having Brandon Jew from San Francisco visit and cook his brand of American Chinese cuisine has been a meeting of the minds, Brandon’s approach to custodian cooking sees him research the cuisine’s traditional aspects and the new frontier more modern aspects of the cookings approach. Highly intelligent and deeply emotional approach to delicious food.
Our industry has always had a great sense of camaraderie and community, during these events where we are on the world stage it unites us all and gives us all a sense of family and solidarity, especially after a particularly tough 2 years. As we have all recently realised, we are more connected than we think.
