Star chef to plate up degustation dinner
MATT GOLINSKI'S FOUR-COURSE DEGUSTATION DINNER EXPERIENCE
If dining on a five-star meal prepared by a celebrity chef is on your culinary bucket list, Moreton Bay Food + Wine Festival can make your dream a reality.
The festival, which is Queensland’s biggest foodie celebration, is on August 23-25 at Woody Point’s Apex Park.
Renowned chef Matt Golinski will host two exquisite four-course degustation dinners (one on Friday night, the other on Saturday) at the festival’s The Lodge zone for a number of lucky guests to indulge in.
A delicious degustation feast
While he is keeping the menu under wraps for now, you can guarantee each dish will be a culinary masterpiece and feature an array of fresh produce from amazing vendors.
“I will be trying to get as many local producers as I can into each and every dish to show off the flavours of Moreton Bay,” Matt says.
“It’s my job as a chef to share the stories of the producers who work really hard to grow things for us to eat.”
Robert Oatley Wine Pairing
The meal will be paired with a selection of award-winning wines from Robert Oatley Wines, who is a major sponsor of this year’s festival.
Their trio of labels include the maritime-influenced Signature Series, the specific vineyard-focused Finisterre, and the best of the best barrels under The Pennant.
Robert Oatley Wines was founded as a family winery in 2006 by the late Robert (Bob) Oatley AO BEM, who was a proud and passionate fifth-generation Aussie who took Australian wine to the world.
Bob established the now famous Hunter Valley-based Rosemount Estate, producing his first commercial vintages in the early 1970s.
During the ensuing three decades, his wines developed an impressive pedigree – gracing the world’s best wine lists and winning many of the highest accolades, while consistently topping sales in Australia, the UK and USA.
