Australia doesn’t have a singular national dish. Instead it is more of a nationwide buffet: a coast-to-coast spread of snacks, meals and culinary experiences that speak to the country’s diverse histories, peoples and cultures.
For their latest series, Adam and Poh’s Great Australian Bites, the former MasterChef Australia contestants and cookbook authors Adam Liaw and Poh Ling Yeow hit the road for several months, eating their way through the nation’s bain maries, bistros and regional bakeries. Here, they share the highlights of that trip.
