22.01.2022 " Price will always be a major consideration but the real conversation should be around value for money." - Chef Mark Jensen
16.01.2022 "Have you ever walked into a restaurant and you immediately feel like you are part of the family? It starts with that moment, just before they greet you, where ...you can sense the warmth growing inside of you as they glide towards and open the door with a beaming smile, an infectious energy and an open heart, as though they have known you for years. I have found that this is extremely rare and when it does occur the simple act of eating a meal is transformed into a beauty of art. This exact moment occurred last night as we experienced the magic of Sydney restaurant, Red Lantern’s hospitality, award-winning food and unrivaled atmosphere..." - Click on the link below to continue reading.

One of my first chef mentors Matt Moran also taught me to appreciate a...nd respect the freshness of produce. To respect the people who grow it and the way it is handle from the paddock to plate." - Chef Mark Jensen See more

11.01.2022 "Sure, being green may cost a little more but if you use sustainably grown, free range and organic produce wisely, not that much more." - Chef Mark Jensen
10.01.2022 "Education is crucial. You don’t know what you don’t know. If the produce is on display as you hurriedly zoom down the supermarket aisle filling your trolley few will stop to consider seasonality." - Chef Mark Jensen
10.01.2022 "It’s so easy being green. You don’t have to do everything at once, you just need to start doing something. One little thing that then leads to another. A simpl...e example is to separate the rubbish. Yes, food waste, cardboard, glass, plastic, and tin. By doing this you can easily see the quantity and the make up of the rubbish you create." - Chef Mark Jensen See more
07.01.2022 "Ask where the produce is grown. Ask if it was grown using sustainable farming methods. The more questions you ask, the richer the experience will be." - Chef Mark Jensen
