ABOUT US
Let's just cut to the chase; we love food, people and nature. Biji Dining is what allows us to bring all this together. Inspired by the bold and vibrant flavours of India, our pop up events move where we travel; exposing us to different cultures, climates, produce and exciting new challenges - all reflected in the food we create.
Our concept is simple, we serve a menu that evolves with the seasons. We explore new and inventive ways of creating dishes that blend old India with local and native Australian ingredients. Our belief is to use whatever is available, supporting local growers and small producers; focused on sustainability, minimal waste and all that is good for this earth.
