 Wine Brats: 6 in 6 Australia
After centuries of resistance, Australian cuisine has started to leave its bland and boiled British ancestry behind as it adopts influences from the many cultures and ingredients within its borders.
In developing a cuisine from a broad base of external influences there is always the possibility that you will simply end up with an imitation of what other people cook, without ever truly expressing the region and culture that you are cooking for.
This is why, ultimately, a true cuisine takes time to develop and requires that top chefs (as the most visible representation of a region's cuisine) are taking their inspiration from the lives and tables of real people and not making “regional” dishes that people in the region would find unrecognizable.
