I was like “that's my brother”, and the other kids were like, “no, that's Santa!” 

In this episode of Three Food Memories, you'll meet Aussie contemporary artist and Archibald Packing Room prize winner, Abdul Abdullah. 

On the menu is; Maccas Filet-O-Fish, booking a fancy restaurant for the first time, and island hopping in Greece. 

Sides include meeting Cat Stevens, playing Lego in Maths class, how the sea parted the first time he met his now-wife and fellow artist Amrita Hepi, his work with children at risk, and his art creation. 

Abdul's social cause is Muslim Aid Australia - and the work they're doing raising money to support orphans in Gaza.
