Sydney-based food writer Roberta Muir loves making it easy for others to explore new cuisines, ingredients, wines and places through small-group food & wine tours, fun food events, and online cooking classes.
She's spent a lifetime cooking, eating, drinking and travelling and sharing her passion for these pastimes through her writing.
Her love of food, wine and foreign culture has led her on adventures through Europe, Africa, the Middle East, North America, Scandinavia, and South East and Central Asia, and she now escorts small groups of food and wine lovers to her favourite corners of the world.
Roberta managed Australia’s largest recreational cooking school, Sydney Seafood School at Sydney Fish Market, from 1997-2021 and now offers online cooking classes on a wide range of cuisines, often in collaboration with leading Australian chefs.
Roberta holds a Master of Arts degree in Gastronomy and is a qualified Sherry educator and cheese judge. She wrote the Sydney Seafood School Cookbook and 500 Cheeses and co-wrote A Lombardian Cookbook with chef Alessandro Pavoni, A Sardinian Cookbook with chef Giovanni Pilu, and Wild Weed Pie with chef Janni Kyritsis.
