Messina Eats Is Back! Featuring Hoy Pinoy's Filipino BBQ

It's been a long year of no events and no Messina Eats... but it's finally time to have some fun. Come and visit the Messina Eats re-launch and taste Hoy Pinoy's delicious Filipino BBQ, 16-17th April.

If you're missing Sydney's Night Noodle Markets and their most popular vendor, this should fill the void! Bringing their open-air Filipino barbecues and prized lechon all the way from Melbourne, they'll be setup and smoking out the neighbourhood from 12pm on Friday 16th – Saturday 17th April.

They're bringing all the Hoy Pinoy classics as well as a few new specials. The rolled lechon belly charcoal roast will only be available on Friday as a special, and the full lechon (whole pig) spit roast will only be available on Saturday from 1pm. Both served with rice, spiced vinegar and cucumber salad.
