Rhiannon Anderson Biography – Rhiannon Anderson Wiki
Rhiannon Anderson is an administration manager from Queensland. She is a contestant in series 15 of MasterChef Australia. In the 2023 series, she has been a fan favourite. She competes alongside Cath Collins, Brent Draper, Declan Cleary and Theo Loizou.
Inspired in the kitchen by Rick Stein, Clare Smyth, Gordon Ramsay, Matt Sinclair and Maggie Beer, Rhiannon also admires Charlie Carrington’s globetrotting menus at Atlas Dining, having prepared dinners for her young kids in this vein years ago, instilling cultural awareness through food.
Without a doubt, her biggest inspiration in life has been her mum, who sadly lost her battle with ovarian cancer in 2021. Her mother became a chef when Rhiannon was 11 and taught Rhiannon all she knows in the kitchen. She told Rhiannon that she must apply for MasterChef, which makes Rhiannon’s spot in the Top 18 all the more special.
For the fan favourite MasterChef contestant, fresh produce is key and Asian flavours merge with the tropics to deliver bold, punchy flavours. Not daunted by the MasterChef kitchen, Rhiannon backs herself to handle the pressure.
The other ace up her sleeve is her competitive spirit. An accomplished water skier, Rhiannon holds the title as the 2022 national women’s 45+ champion, achieved at her first-ever nationals, no less. Along with water skiing, Rhiannon keeps fit with bike riding, walking and weights.
Intent on soaking up all the knowledge she can, she dreams of opening her own restaurant in Townsville, bringing global cuisine and big flavours to far north Queensland. She would love to pen a cookbook with three-course dinner party menus from cuisines around the globe and would dedicate it to her mum, who always dreamed of having a cookbook too.
