DESCRIPTION
Living in Tasmania we are so lucky to be connected to our food. With pristine air, soil and water at a great latitude for lots of sunshine that ain’t too hot, Tasmania can showcase some amazing produce. The ultimate way to be an insider and participate intimately in this connection is to spoil yourself with a full day at the Agrarian Kitchen Cooking School.
This is a truly unique and special hands-on food and professional kitchen experience that encompasses everything that is good about food, starting with collecting directly from the abundant Agrarian Garden. Rodney Dunn, founder of Agrarian Kitchen, will lead a hands on cooking experience in their purpose built kitchen that will be ready for classes from October 2022. A light dinner following the class, if anything at all, will be ample.
Accommodation is provided at a gorgeous and award winning Guest House five minutes from The Agrarian Kitchen.
After a good sleep in and breakfast of your choice, take your time to relax in the peaceful gardens or sunroom. Your guide will pick you up late morning and take you to some places of interest, and then back to The Agrarian Kitchen. Now it is time for you to enjoy a long lunch with matching wines, being served dishes that now carry so much more meaning. Being able to fully experience both sides of the kitchen simply enhances the whole experience.
In its totality, this is an expertly crafted and well balanced food focused weekend designed to forge deep connections with seasonal food and your creative passions.
