Australia’s SBS will dish up a 24/7 menu of everyday food inspiration when it launches its new television channel dedicated to the world of food on 17 November 2015.

The new channel, Food Network, will be available to all Australians across the country for free when it goes live.

Serving up an appetising selection of food programs handpicked from around the world, Food Network is set to entertain and inspire Australia’s many everyday food lovers.

Cooking programmes featuring some of the world’s most popular food personalities will get people around the country slicing, dicing, stirring and sizzling, and taste buds will tingle as audiences are taken on culinary adventures across the globe.

SBS MD Michael Ebeid said, “SBS has a proud reputation for delivering distinctive food programming that allows Australians to delve into different cultures, and today we’re excited to reveal the next course in our food menu.

Food Network will offer a taste of something more, with a focus on simple, authentic and accessible everyday food inspiration from around the world, available all day, every day, across platforms, and for free.” Curtis Stone will be a star ingredient in Food Network’s programming mix with several of his shows to be featured on the channel.

The popular and passionate Aussie chef has the sun-and-surf-inspired series ‘Beach Eats USA’, along with his cooking competition series ‘Kitchen Inferno’ and his Australian series, ‘Surfing the Menu’.

Other program highlights include home cooking inspiration with ‘Rachael Ray’s 30 Minute Meals’ and ‘Giada at Home'; food-inspired travel and culinary adventure programs ‘Reza: Spice Prince of Vietnam’, ‘Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern’ and ‘Diners, Drive Ins And Dives’ and gastronomic food entertainment including ‘Chopped’ hosted by Ted Allen, sourced through an output deal and licensing agreement with Scripps Networks Interactive.

Scripps Networks’ global lifestyle media portfolio includes popular brands Food Network, Cooking Channel, Asian Food Channel, Fine Living Network, Travel Channel, HGTV and DIY.

Scripps Networks are supplying programming from across the food category including food-inspired entertainment and travel, and home cooking from all around the world.

Alongside this enticing mix of global content, Food Network will also feature some of SBS’ locally made programmes starring Australian foodie faces.
