Tania Sibrey signs off her emails as Chief Cook, Bottlewasher and Food Explorer at Food I Am – a role she has given her love, energy and creativity to for over a decade.
Tania established Food I Am in September 2011 after identifying a gap in the market for experiential food tourism and education.
Through Food I Am, Tania has achieved her dream of providing regional people with access to great food experiences while highlighting fantastic regional produce, opening her amazing purpose-built facility overlooking Wagga Wagga in April 2014.
Located on the highest elevated building site on the southern edge of Wagga Wagga, amid 100 acres of rolling hills, Food I Am is part cooking school and part private dining venue, allowing visitors to either roll up their sleeves and learn from the best chefs in the country, or to sit back and relax while the expert team prepares a culinary delight.
Bringing many top chefs to the Riverina to share their knowledge and techniques, Tania has also established Food I Am as the perfect setting for corporate team building exercises and is helping people combine their passion for food and travel with gourmet food tours to countries like Italy and Vietnam. She also hosts Food Treks for small groups visiting some of the Riverina’s best producers, winemakers, food stores, restaurants and cafes.
