Lisa Goldberg

Lisa Goldberg is a Melbourne-born home cook who swapped law for ladles after moving to Sydney in the late ’80s. A former solicitor, she co-founded the Monday Morning Cooking Club in 2006 and has since led the publication of four best-selling cookbooks celebrating Jewish home cooking from around the world. As the Club’s spirited “Chief Pot Stirrer,” Lisa has written engaging content for its website and collaborated with artisans, chefs and producers including Kristen Allan, Michael Rantissi, Simon Johnson and Olsson’s Salt. During the 2020 lockdowns, she built a loyal audience with her daily Instagram Live series Lisa’s Lockdown Kitchen, combining conversation, comfort and cooking.
