Relish Food and Wine Festival 2017

 

If you are a lover of gourmet food, don’t mind a drop of white or red, and enjoy fresh local produce then the Relish Food and Wine Festival is definitely for you. This is a perfect day out for everyone, whether you are a family with kids in tow, a couple in love ready to experiment with new tastes, or flying solo, footloose and fancy free, you are in for some delicious, delectable, and divine dishes.

Maryborough has such a rich, vibrant history and is the perfect location for this ‘MUST DO’ Event. Meander the heritage streets and admire the architecture, as you relax, unwind and experience the many flavours and smells of Relish. Or bring a picnic blanket and lay out on the grass and listen to some live music while enjoying a rich array of food accompanied by a glass of wine. .

The Chefs of the day are:

  • Saul Collins – Executive Chef of the Vinyard
  • Rocco Turina – Villa Cavour Bed & Breakfast
  • Tom Jack – New Chef at Coast Restaurant and Bar
  • Dan & Steph – EAT at Dan & Stephs – Head chef Adam will also be doing a demonstration.
