The range Chef Mohammed reaches for, every time

For the past 10 months, Crowne Plaza Sydney Airport Executive Chef Mohammed Taheri has been incorporating the Oli & Vine premium fresh chilled products from Goodman Fielder Foodservice into a variety of dishes on his menus. He’s so happy with the results that he’s now a firm advocate of Oli & Vine’s quality, consistency and versatility.

Designed to provide chefs with products that perform under pressure, elevate presentation and perfectly complement and enhance the flavours of their dishes, the Oli & Vine range has been locally crafted using simple, authentic and quality ingredients like fresh Australian real eggs and Australian canola oil to ensure delicious flavour and thick creamy texture. All are free from artificial colours, flavours and preservatives.

“I was initially attracted to the Oli & Vine range because they are chef quality – premium products with excellent ingredients,” Mohammed says. “In my opinion, there is nothing else as good available on the Australian market.”

Chef Mohammed and his team are committed to delivering exceptional dining experiences across Crowne Plaza Sydney Airport’s breakfast buffet, a la carte, room service and Biggles Bar & Grill menus, ensuring all dishes meet high standards of quality, flavour and presentation.

“I use the Oli & Vine range across the entire venue,” Mohammed affirms, “from our restaurant bar to room service and functions. I rotate the menu every two months and I try to incorporate Oli & Vine products into many different elements of my menu items.”

Asked what sets Oli & Vine products apart from the competition, Mohammed’s key callouts are consistency, quality, excellent ingredients and flavour. “We’ve certainly received great feedback from our hotel guests,” he adds, “which shows me that all those touchpoints are of the standard they expect.”

Mohammed’s favourite product in the range is Oli & Vine Whole Egg Mayonnaise, which he describes as “a great quality base that can be used across a wide selection of sauces and menu items.” Made with real Australian fresh eggs for an authentic taste and creamy texture, this fresh chilled product features a neutral flavour profile to perfectly complement the flavours of your dishes and has the added benefits of being gluten and dairy free and suitable for vegetarians.

Tartare Sauce joins the range

The newest product to join the Oli & Vine range is Oli & Vine Tartare Sauce, which features the bold, balanced flavours of chopped gherkin, Dijon mustard and dill and has been developed to add genuine depth without overpowering the other components of your dish.

Ideal for serving with classic fish and chips or as a refined accompaniment to other culinary creations, again it’s fresh chilled, made with real Australian fresh eggs and Australian canola oil and boasts a thick, luxuriously creamy texture.

In recognition of the burgeoning popularity of burgers across foodservice menus, Oli & Vine Burger Sauce features a signature smoky tang that delivers serious flavour and has been designed to be “no run, no mess”. Made with quality ingredients including pure Dijon mustard, real onions, tomato and gherkins, it’s perfect for burgers or loaded fries and a brilliant build across your creations. 

Utilising the Oli & Vine range can not only enhance your menu, it can also reduce your cost burden

Designed to deliver the perfect classic Caesar flavour, Oli & Vine Caesar Dressing spreads smooth, holds firm and won’t split even under heat. Bold in flavour yet balanced in finish, it’s made with real Parmesan cheese, anchovies and  garlic and is superb for tossing in salads, layering in wraps and rolls or as a marinade.

There’s also Oli & Vine Ranch Dressing, made with real Australian fresh eggs, buttermilk and herbs. Consistently rich and creamy, it holds under heat with no splitting or stress, spreads silkily and is the ideal accompaniment to spicy chicken wings, and as a salad dressing or side for finger food and share plates.

The final product in the range is Oli & Vine Aioli, which is deliciously creamy and pairs perfectly with hot chips, seafood, burgers or sandwiches. Again it’s made with real Australian fresh eggs to ensure an authentic flavour, and is gluten and dairy free and suitable for vegetarians.

Utilising the Oli & Vine range can not only enhance your menu – as borne out by the example of Chef Mohammed and his team – it can also reduce your cost burden. Choosing products like Oli & Vine which are consistently reliable, powerful flavour enhancers allows you to better manage your protein costs by moving to more economical cuts which you can then “flavour up” to deliver the dining experience your customers expect.

And with sustainability a key focus for the foodservice sector and today’s consumers alike, Oli & Vine packaging has been designed to be fully recyclable, in line with Goodman Fielder’s overall sustainability strategy. 

The Oli & Vine range is a key brand within Goodman Fielder Foodservice’s extensive product portfolio which encompasses 13 different categories – enabling Goodman Fielder Foodservice to provide complete solutions to foodservice end-users and add value to your business.
