In the heart of Italian Leichhardt, Robyn Touchard is a chef whose family hails from Mauritius, the large island off the coast of Africa. She moves easily between her family’s cooking tradition and that of her husband, whose parents are Italian.
Curator’s notes
It’s great to see such a mixing and matching of cultures and foodstuffs. Robyn is a chef at Elio in Leichhardt and spends time at her husband’s typical Italian coffee shop when she can or watches her mother and grandmother create some of their Mauritian specialities which she now has a passion to learn about.
