Food publication & local guide
Brisbane Food Guide
Restaurants, local guides and conversations with the people behind the food. I founded and edit Brisbane Food Guide.
All projectsHow it began
I wanted to understand community from the ground up. Talking to food business owners gave me a way to listen: to how a place began, what it takes to keep it going and the people whose work a customer might never see. I wanted businesses without a PR team to have a chance to be discovered and understood too.
My part in it
I meet owners, conduct interviews, take photographs and edit the guide. I also built the website using AI-assisted development. The technology helps me carry out the work; the relationships grow through showing up, listening and getting the details right.
What you will find
The guide brings together restaurant profiles, maps, suburb and cuisine guides, lists, new openings and original editorial work. Its conversations include Satinder and Sarah at Punjabi Bytes, Okan and Burcu at Kuzine, Phillip Di Bella and Wes Lambert. A food truck, a neighbourhood cafe and an established restaurant all have a place in the city I want the guide to reflect.

Still growing
Keep listening, cover more of the city and give each story the care it deserves. I hope that knowing who prepared a meal, and what brought them there, makes the experience of eating it more meaningful.
