PRESS RELEASE

Matt Moran and Anolon launch Australias first Gourmet Authority Competition
One of the worlds largest cookware manufacturers, Meyer Cookware is pleased to announce
that renowned celebrity chef Matt Moran has been named the brand ambassador for their
gourmet cookware brand Anolon. One of Australias most popular and respected chefs, Matt Moran
has collaborated with Anolon cookware to launch a nationwide search to find Australias gourmet
authority.
Every cooking enthusiast has a signature dish, one that they know will impress their guests at a dinner
party, said Matt Moran. The search to find Australias Gourmet Authority will showcase the creativity
Australians have in created their own unique dishes. I look forward to seeing the recipes they have to
share.
Anolon cookware and Matt Moran are encouraging Australians to unleash the gourmet within by
entering the details of their signature recipe online at www.anolon.com.au for the chance to win a
cooking experience of a lifetime. The winner of the best dish per state, as chosen by Matt Moran, will be
in the running to battle it out to win a major prize including a cooking master class with Matt Moran
himself.
The launch of the competition and Anolons new brand ambassador comes in the wake of a significant
increase in at-home cooking and entertaining potentially triggered by popular cooking programs such as
MasterChef, as well as the rise in at-home cocooning.
Whilst Australians have always been adventurous with their cooking and passionate about finding the
freshest of ingredients, when it comes to cookware many home cooks often settle for using a handful of
utensils to do the job, said Matt Moran. An integral part of cooking process is having the right
cookware for the task at hand. Anolons extensive range of quality, high performance cookware will help
aspiring home cooks make a fantastic meal every time.
According to Anolon cookware National Marketing Manager, Nicole Tyquin, Matt Moran was an
immediate and perfect choice for the brand.
As one of Australias most respected chefs, Matt Moran brings his significant gastronomic and culinary
credibility to our nationwide search for Australias Gourmet Authority as well as reinforcing the Gourmet
Authority values of the Anolon cookware brand. However, of even greater interest to discerning home
cooks is Matts support for using the right cooking tool in the kitchen for each cooking job. With the
increased interest in at-home cooking and entertaining, Australians are demanding more from their
cookware and seeking a range of products which can deliver professional results at home.
Matt Moran left school at 15 to become an apprentice chef, little did he know he would one day become
one of Australians most respected chefs and co owner of ARIA, a premier restaurant in both Sydney
and Brisbane.
