MKR’s Colin Fassnidge offers free meals to those struggling in Sydney

My Kitchen Rules star Colin Fassnidge is offering a helping hand to those struggling amid the coronavirus pandemic.

On Monday, the chef, 45, was spotted giving out free meals to the locals in Banksia, Sydney.

Colin, who heads up trendy eateries 4 Fourteen in Surry Hills and Banksia at the Banksia Hotel, handed out the takeaway meals to families that are doing it tough.

The celebrity chef looked stylish in blue jeans, a matching coloured T-shirt and a buttoned shirt.

He completed his outfit with a pair of white sneakers and wore a pair of sunglasses to shield himself from the sun.

Colin handed out meals stored in brown paper bags to the locals and he also had a basket filled with free bread.

This isn’t the first time the chef has helped his fellow man during the coronavirus pandemic.

In March, the My Kitchen Rules star shared a video to Instagram to let fans in the area know that he can offer them a free feed.

He said in the Instagram video: ‘Everybody is doing takeaway. We’re doing takeaway from our two places.

‘But what we realised was a lot of people who have been coming in soon won’t be able to afford takeaway or meals and have families that are doing it tough.’

‘Our locals are looking after us, so what we’d like to do is if you can’t feed your family and you live in the local area of Banksia, DM me on here and we’ll sort you out with food,’ he added. 

The Irish-born chef went on to say he doesn’t want anything in return – he just wants to help those struggling.

The TV star told his fans: ‘We just want to look after our local community because you look after us.’

‘There won’t be a big deal made about it, but we’ll look after each other in the future’ he added.
