We all know Matt Gatt as a great chef, but how many of us know how it all began. At our latest meeting and first physical one in over a month, Matt not only feed us Irish stew and dessert but provided us with his extremely interesting journey story from the Sydney school boy with no known direction ‘to the co-owner of ‘The Hungry Fox’ in Leeton.

The women who inspired him and where it all began.

Where he has worked and who he has meet through his journey.

The Hungry Fox is born and then develops.

Food, glorious food

The Hungry Fox today with the help of family.

Thank you Matt!

Rotarian’s Pick the Menu 

This week we were finally able to partake in some of Matt’s cooking being the Irish stew chosen by Kerry, pre ‘stay at home’ orders.

Next week we will be treated to some traditional lamb roast compliments of Len.
We may have missed Matt’s delicious cuisine but we were not the only ones. Let me tell you the chickens are not happy they have been missing out on their weekly treat (including this week) and we know what happens when the chickens are not happy!
