What's Happening September-November 2016

EVENT
MKR’S ANNA AND JORDAN AT THE LIVING AND LEISURE EXPO
See Anna and Jordan cooking demos at the Living and Leisure Expo featuring Dogs Breakfast.
Wanneroo’s own Anna and Jordan
Bruno made their mark on hit
television show My Kitchen Rules
earlier this year, and now the
mother/son team are set to star at
the City of Wanneroo’s upcoming
Living and Leisure Expo, featuring
Dogs Breakfast.
The pair will perform several live
cooking demonstrations throughout
the day, showcasing their mouthwatering
recipes.
“We will be cooking home-style food
with a lot of love and passion,” Anna
promised. “It will be a lot of fun and
we are really looking forward to the
event.”
Fans will also have the chance
to meet the duo, with Jordan
particularly keen to see the
hundreds of four-legged friends in
attendance.
“I am likely to steal a puppy,” he
joked. “I love the idea that pets
are welcome at this event, I am
obsessed with dogs so I’m excited
to see them all there.”
A Wanneroo resident for more than
25 years, Anna moved to the area
when she married her husband, who
had lived in Wanneroo his entire life
with his market gardening family.
“When I first started dating my
husband there was only one bus
in and one bus out,” she said.
“Growing up in Bassendean -
it seemed so far away, but I instantly
loved the small community feel.
“It has been a great place to raise
four boys on acreage - it’s so open,
we loved the freedom and it just has
a really good community feel. We’ve
seen some amazing changes over
the years.”
Anna and Jordan’s passion for
cooking was evident on the small
screen, with both of them having an
interest from a young age.
“I grew up in a large family of seven
children, so I started by helping out
with dinner, peeling the potatoes,
which grew to suggesting meals
and doing the cooking,” Anna said.
“I love to eat, and I love to cook.”
Jordan took an interest in cooking
at about 12 years of age, and while
the pair enjoy cooking meals from
their Italian and Maltese heritage,
they love different cuisines, including
Moroccan and Thai.
“I love experimenting with healthy
meals and trying to do a twist on
the traditional,” Jordan said.
Life since MKR has been busy
for the pair, carrying out cooking
demonstrations and doing corporate
catering.
In September Anna plans to have
‘Mama Anna’s Cooking Classes’
up and running, while Jordan is
searching for the perfect location in
Perth’s northern suburbs to open
a café, where he hopes to offer
traditional food with a healthy twist.
