Ep 31: Uncorking Curiosity with Lyndey Milan

Have you ever wondered what the Sydney Royal Fine Food competition is about, who gets involved, and why? 

Tawnya Bahr catches up with Lyndey Milan OAM, Councillor of the Royal Agricultural Society of NSW, to find out what goes on behind the scenes of the iconic Sydney Royal Fine Food competitions. Lyndey has long been involved and has played a crucial role in this important agricultural competition, where she was the first female Vice-President. She founded the Fine Foods Committee in 1997, judging Aquaculture, Branded Meats, Oil and olives, Pasta, Professional Bakery, Specialty Foods, Smallgoods, and Charcuterie. She has also chaired the Sydney Royal Dairy and Wine Shows and remains on all three committees. 

In this engaging chat Lyndey discusses how and why the competitions started, explains the ‘blind judging’ system the Society uses to ensure fairness for all participants; why winning a medal at the competition is a significant accolade for producers and the importance of networking opportunities for those who sign up as a judge.

She also explains the branding advantages of being a medal winner and how the competition encourages producers to improve their offerings based on genuine feedback.
