2016 isn’t leaving food-lovers short of new and creative recipes on plates, so what’s shaping the culinary scene?
 |
We’ve already seen iterations of classic dishes where variation puts a new spin on favourites (think ingredients like lobster, crab and truffle taking burgers up a notch) and this year there’s more trend spotting which leaves us craving the latest dishes. Watch out for these top food trends that are shaping menus right now: |
Brinner (Breakfast for Dinner)
Via BBC Good Food
Can’t squeeze all the breakfast and brunch recipes you want to try? A good solution is brinner – breakfast for dinner.
A wave of bars and cafes serving breakfast and brunch in new and creative ways haven’t left us short of new recipes to try. Brinner is one prediction expected to catch on as breakfast and brunch starts making its way into weeknight dinners.
Plant-Based Cuisine
A harder stance and more conversations around climate change is turning the focus to plant-based cuisine which is coming out as a strong trend in 2016.
While it’s not every restaurant’s market or every consumer’s cup of tea, more restaurants in Melbourne and Sydney are adding vegetarian and vegan options alongside their regular dishes, and plant-based confections are the new favourite.
Digital Wallets
The digital shift is in full swing, so a digital counterpart to a physical wallet is no surprise. Mobile wallets are forever changing the way we transact, undercutting EFTPOS, letting consumers leave the cash and plastic at home, and in the case of bucqi, ditch reward cards to boot.
bucqi is breaking new ground in 2016 as a mobile wallet and rewards app that lets consumers make everyday transactions with a tap of a smart phone, while earning bigger rewards which they can conveniently spend at multiple vendors. Visit bucqi.com.
