Winter seemed to have whizzed on past in the blink of an eye but Chez Nous Corporate kept the home fires burning all season long with hot seasonal menu items, a number of heartwarming community collaborations and a bunch of sizzling catered events, both off-site and on-site at our sister venue The Joinery. Here’s the wrap up…
COMMUNITY NEWS
PANIYIRI GREEK FESTIVAL
Chez Nous Corporate are proud to provide ongoing support to Paniyiri Greek Festival, Queensland’s signature celebration of all things Greek, and feel honoured to be part of the amazingly warm and passionate community who work tirelessly to make each year bigger and better. 2016’s event was no different!

VINNIES CEO SLEEPOUT
Chez Nous Corporate was delighted to sponsor Vinnies CEO Sleepout, an event which saw 1,485 CEOs across the country sleep out with nothing more than a beanie and a box to raise money for crucial services that help Australians experiencing homelessness.
A great result achieved with CEOs conquering the cold to raise over $5.6 million nationally for the 105,000 Australians who are homeless on any given night. Donate or register for next year’s event here!
ARI’S FOOD SAFARI
Chez Nous Corporate were thrilled and honoured to partner with our sister venue The Joinery to cater the main meal for the spectacular culinary tour Ari’s Food Safari, held on Monday August 15, 2016.
Voted as the The Sunday Mail’s number one event in 2014, the coveted event raises funds for the Australian Mitochondrial Disease Foundation, in memory of local Brisbane boy Ari Rotolone, who passed away from Mitochondrial Disease at the age of four.
This year’s sold out event saw 200 guests enjoy a delicious Victorian Lamb Rack with Persian Fetta infused Potato Mash and Caponata, finished with Salsa Verde and Sweet Potato Chips.
The night was a huge success, with $27,468 raised for the Australian Mitochondrial Disease Foundation.
Thanks to the generous team of sponsors AQUA Carpatica AVIdeas, Bloomberry, Bob’s Hire, Brandition, DJ Kossi, Event Letters, Fresh Sensations, Griffith Graphics Pty Ltd, Hawk Creative, Mappins Nursery & Aquarium and The PhotoBooth Guys as well as all the supporting venues Alfred & Constance, Chester Street, Doughnut Time, Les Bubbles, The Joinery West End and Vine Restaurant Bar.
