Modern Australian

Modern Australian Dining Guide - Local Restaurants, Cafes, Takeaways

The term “Modern Australian” was first coined in 1994, in the last edition of the Good Food Guide, edited by Leo Schofield. This style of cooking has variously been known as international, mod-oz, fusion or contemporary, and denotes a culinary culture that is the result of a collision of cuisines from around the world.
