PORTUGAL COMES TO PETERSHAM – Festival in Photos

“It feels like I’m in Madeira, mate.”

It’s on again, the annual Biarro Portugues – the Petersham Food and Wine Fair.

I was there with the requisites – a camera and an empty stomach.

Our Sydney suburb Petersham is the heart of the expat Portuguese community. It’s not a big area, and not a big community, but they all turn out on a Sunday for the food, the music and a good time.

It’s all go in Audley St.

Of course something has to be grilled.

People dress in traditional Portuguese costumes.

Drumming for Portugal.

Sangria…

…and sardinas…

…and a quiet coffee at Sweet Belem at the end of the day.
