Mitch has returned from the Tasting Australia Festival and he's brought someone up from Adelaide with him: Jock Zonfrillo, the creative curator of Tasting Australia and the head chef/owner of Orana. Find out the juiciest Marco Pierre White gossip from the festival and learn a little about The Orana Foundation, which works with Aboriginal communities to study native Australian ingredients on both a cooking and a cultural level.  Halfway through the episode we're interrupted by Jake Smyth of Mary's and The Unicorn fame, who lets us know why his face is covered in burns, what he got up to at Tasting Australia and what he has planned for his next big project: reopening The Lansdowne. - The Mitchen is a podcast about food in Sydney, hosted by Andrew Levins and Mitch Orr.
