Carriageworks

Eat Like a Chef: Neil Perry’s Food Guide To Sydney

"An erstwhile train station converted into a weekend farmers’ market, where local farmers from the Blue Mountains bring organically grown fruit and vegetables; it’s fun to explore the stalls selling food, seafood, cheeses and wines." - Kenneth Goh

"The brick-and-iron warehouses of the old Eveleigh Railway Workshops host a diverse lineup of experimental music, theater, film, and fine art. Located on the border of Redfern and Waterloo, Carriageworks was restored to keep the historical roots intact while providing a space for cutting-edge culture. Every Saturday, more than 70 stalls fill the former railyard outside with organic produce, artisan breads, specialty coffee, and exotic flowers as well as street food from the likes of chef Kylie Kwong during the farmers' market. Fuel up at the market and then get inspired by whatever is on display inside this artist-run venue. Big annual events for Sydney Contemporary, Pacific Runway, Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, and the Sydney Festival are also held here throughout the year."

"I also like Carriageworks in Eveleigh, which is an old train station that has been converted into a weekend farmers’ market." - Kenneth Goh
