Business Events Australia lists the sourdough classes at Lake House and the beekeeping experience at Saffire Freycinet as immersive culinary experiences sure to give groups an authentic taste of Australia’s extraordinary fresh produce.
“Groups staying at Saffire Freycinet on Tasmania‘s east coast will be treated to a delicious array of culinary experiences, from learning to shuck fresh oysters to feasting on home-grown produce at this Luxury Lodge of Australia‘s lauded in-house restaurant, Palate. One foodie activity that will generate a buzz with guests is the Beekeeping Experience, where groups of up to eight guests at a time don an apiarist suit and venture into a private apiary, overlooking The Hazards mountain range. With the guidance of Saffire’s horticulturalist, Rob ‘The Bee Man’ Barker, guests extract fresh honeycomb as they witness thousands of Tasmanian bees at work. The wild honey stars on the daily-changing menu at Palate, which features 80 per cent Tasmanian produce.
..Hailed by Australian Gourmet Traveller as a “success story of regional dining”, the Lake House Daylesford is the perfect gourmet retreat for groups. Boasting a two chef-hatted restaurant and its own cooking school, this Luxury Lodge of Australia regularly runs masterclasses with top Australian chefs as well as its own chefs and local suppliers. Nearby sister property Dairy Flat Farm runs immersive sourdough classes, which operate as an extension of the Lake House Cooking School program. Groups of up to 10 guests join renowned baker Michael James in the new state-of-the-art, semi-underground bakehouse, which has been built with the goal of supporting small local grain growers and millers. Guests experiment with slow-fermented sourdough, making baguettes, danishes and doughnuts. Paired with a tour of the olive grove, vegetable gardens and orchards, which supply fresh produce to the Lake House kitchen, this exclusive experience is a delicious addition to an incentive program in regional Victoria.” – Business Events Australia.
