About The Event
Whelk-om to the Wild Harvest Seafood Festival 2022 (see what we did there?)!
This special dinner celebrates the lesser-known and underrated produce harvested from the wilds around
Mallacoota.
Never heard of whelks? That’s ok. We’re here to help you through it. Whelks are a type of sea
snail, and form a motley crew alongside sea urchins, banded morwong and samphire which will
all feature as part of this special dinner.
The menu is thoughtfully curated by renowned chef Stefano De Pieri of A Gondola on the
Murray, and chef and Budawang Elder from the Yuin Nation, Noel Butler.
Local wine and beer is seamlessly matched to the dishes by wine writer, Max Allen.
Indulge in the festival's opening event dinner, hosted by food writer Richard Cornish, overlooking the stunning Mallacoota Lake, and open your eyes and tastebuds to an array of undiscovered delicacies.
