  • Alissa Tran

    TOUR GUIDE

    Alissa grew up and has lived most of her life in Fairy Meadow, on Dharawal Country. I learned early that food is family, food is community and food is culture. I have continued to practice an “eat the world!” approach to life and often explore the world through my tastebuds.

    But more than that I love the connections and friendships that food creates, the learning and exploring of others, and their stories.
