Street Food Australia is a start-up social enterprise dedicated to helping migrants start their own business in the food industry. This will not only bring some vitalising and enjoyable street food to citizens such as ourselves, it will give people in need of a fresh start a hand up and the possibility of an independent income.
There can be no arguing that Australian
cuisine is truly international. Lacking our own solid national culinary
identity, we love to indulge in the cuisine of other cultures. We have Indian
takeaway on Tuesdays, tapas on Fridays and treat ourselves to the most deluxe
of Japanese and French cuisine when we treat ourselves to a special meal out.
If you go to ‘modern Australian’ restaurant, you are more than likely to see
those French, Japanese and Spanish influences splashed across your main dish. I
for one would be delighted to walk down a Brisbane street as spot a dumpling
cart or one serving Afghan, Burmese or Sudanese cuisine.
I think this is a wonderful opportunity to
provide meaningful assistance to people who deserve a chance to start a new
life in Australia. As a side benefit, we get to further expand the culinary
diversity of our tables and palates. If you're interested to read more about or are already keen to support - check out the campaign on Pozible. Depending on how much you give, you get goodies to say thank you!
