A ‘food surf safari’ on the Yorke Peninsula and an ‘epicurean experience’ on the River Murray feature among the highlights of the 2019 Tasting Australia program of more than 90 events in Adelaide and regional SA.
The 10-day festival will take place from April 5-14, with Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment David Ridgway saying that it is expected to attract more than 60,000 people.
One of the new centerpiece events, the Tasting Australia Flotilla, will take place over three days during which guests would stay on houseboats on the River Murray.
The Flotilla experience doesn’t come cheap, with prices starting at $2210 per person, but the TA program promises a “gastronomic journey” that will include nightly dinners on the paddle steamer Marion cooked by chefs including Cheong Liew and Adam Liston.
The Surf Food Safari ($3000pp), another three-day experience, is as an off-road adventure on the Yorke Peninsula which will include surfing lessons and meals by Byron Bay chef and surfer Darren Robertson (Three Blue Ducks restaurant) and Simon Burr (of Strathalbyn’s Olfactory Inn).
The TA Glasshouse Kitchen in Victoria Square will host a series of themed dining events programmed by festival director Simon Bryant and programming director Jock Zonfrillo and would feature interstate and international guest chefs like Peter Gilmore (from Sydney’s acclaimed Quay restaurant), Alex Atala (from D.O.M. in Brazil), Shinobu Namea (L’Effervescence, Tokyo) and Mat Lindsay (Poly and Ester, Sydney).
