Josh Raine is excited to launch his latest venture as the inaugural Chef-in-Residence at Canvas, a dynamic new dining space with stunning harbour views, housed within Sydney’s iconic MCA. In collaboration with hospitality partner The Big Group, Josh brings his renowned culinary expertise to this unique venue, offering a menu that reflects his signature blend of bold flavors, refined techniques, and a deep connection to sustainability.
Having honed his craft in some of the world’s most prestigious kitchens—including Tetsuya’s in Sydney, Le Manoir Aux Quat’Saisons in Oxford, and Pied à Terre in London—Josh approaches Canvas as more than just a restaurant. It’s a creative canvas where food and art come together, offering guests a dining experience that’s as inspiring as it is delicious.
At Canvas, Josh’s menu is a celebration of his culinary journey, drawing inspiration from the diverse places he’s lived and worked, all while showcasing local produce and innovative, low-waste practices. Whether you’re visiting for a casual lunch or a special dinner, expect dishes that push the boundaries of traditional cuisine, combining art and gastronomy in a way that’s uniquely his own.
