Editor’s note

WELCOME to Food Companion International a digital food and wine journal with lots of consumer class thrown in. We created this journal for busy epicureans, chefs, restaurateurs, hoteliers and purveyors within Australia, Asia, Sub-Continent, USA and European markets. 

It covers the epicurean scene, foodservice, and news on food and wine people. We plan to keep you abreast of the times and be progressive in thought to inform you what’s out there. FCI has a knack for spotting opportunities and talent, and we use our intuition and knowledge of industry to keep you informed.

The only way to find out where you’re coming from and what you want is to ask questions and listen to your replies. FCI talks to you and listens – our editorial is on what you have said and want to read.

We are the Industry contributors magazine, where you can read about what is happening in sectors including; epicurean, foodservice, culinary travel, education and our list of contributors is never stagnant and you will be able to read about how professionals view the industry fit, not just from a journalist’s point of view.

Designed for busy people, we hope this journal will give you a laugh and make your day an easier one, based on stories on the local and international scene.

On behalf of the Food Companion International team, may we wish you every success over the busy holiday period and look forward to catching up again with also a printed issue in 2024.

I hope you enjoy our future range of subjects that we cover because variety is the spice of a culinary person’s life!
