Baba’s Place | McMullin Journal
Baba’s Place Yoghurt and Cucumber Dish by Executive Chef & Director of Consumables Jean-Paul Baba's Place is an Inner West gem that celebrates suburban cuisine through a unique blend of art, food, and culture. From the Front of House to the Bar and Kitchen, the team proudly considers themselves Baba's favourite grandchildren—always ready to welcome you with open arms and a hearty "allo." Though it doubles as a creative agency and regularly hosts DJs and visual artists, Baba's Place remains, at its core, a haven for delicious food. The kind of food that could inspire an entire thesis—think white dips, charred sugarloaf cabbage, roasted flathead, cumin-laden skewers, and deserts like olive oil gelato and chewy sticky dates with creme pat + butterscotch. We visited the team to step into their world, learning the tricks and secrets behind their beloved dishes. They shared a family-favourite recipe that’s perfect for summer—so you can bring a little taste of Baba’s Place to your own table this summer.

Felix’s installation brings this vision to life, showcasing premium, one-of-a-kind designs that stand the test of time. We asked Felix a few questions on his journey and experience creating this installation. We sat down with Felix to discuss his journey, inspirations, and the creative process behind this installation. Here’s what he had to share.
