S2 Ep8: Suren Jayemanne
Manage episode 415322716 series 3503703
This week Adam's joined by comedian, writer, TV Host and qualified ‘but not practicing’ tax accountant Suren Jayemanne.
Suren’s no stranger to exploring the stories behind the foods people love, having hosted Good Tucker – a 6 part series on SBS here in Australia that explores multi cultural cuisine in regional Victoria.
In this episode, Suren and Adam explore almost as many themes as there are items on a dumpling house menu – from multiculturalism, to flavour enhancers. From how food brings people together in times of crisis, to how the memories of loved ones who have passed live on through their favourite foods.
Suren even, very bravely, declares which Australian capital city is his favourite foodie destination.
So if you ordered a serve of captivating conversation with a healthy dash of chuckles and spice, this next hour is sure to satisfy.
And don’t forget the three foods that lead to all of this delicious discussion:
- Hoppers / Appam
- Suren’s Uncle’s Feast
- Rough Puff

I was truly inspired by our chat about the pie floater. So much so, that I grabbed a pie from the Prahran Market and whipped up my favourite Dahl recipe so I could experience the taste sensation for myself! You can check out how it went on my Instagram, and find the Dahl recipe here from the iconic restaurant Parwana in Adelaide.
