What better reason to jump in the car and take a trip to one of South Australia’s beautiful regions than a unique eating and drinking experience? We suggest you take advantage of the remainder of our Winter Series program to satisfy your palate AND your travel itch by combining a Tasting Australia experience with South Australian exploration.
ADELAIDE HILLS
Tuesday 13th July & Thursday 22nd July
Angler, in the beautiful suburb of Stirling in the luscious Adelaide Hills, has two more Winter Series offerings on the table this July. As South Australia’s first and only sustainable and ethical fish and chippery, Angler are determined to educate their customers about the seafood industry whilst delivering unbeatable seafood dishes. Deep Dive provides attendees with an insight into the Angler supply chain, from the fisherman out at sea to the crumbed fillet on your plate, while Winter Comforts will introduce its audience to winter warming dishes that harness seafood – produce that is often ignored in the colder months.
BAROSSA
Friday 16th July
The historic Meshach Cellar is not usually open for dining, but this Friday the venue, nestled among vineyards and boasting sweeping valley views, is open for business. Meet A Night in the Vines. Enjoy a six-course fine dining experience with matched Grant Burge back vintage wines with led tastings of the vintages spanning four decades. Plus, you will explore a selection of current releases with Grant Burge chief winemaker Craig Stansborough. Incredible views over a world-class Barossa vineyard with an intimate wine and food experience to kickstart your weekend – why not stay the night in the Barossa and make a trip of it?
