On Thursday evening, we attended the inaugural Farm to Plate Dinner at the MECC, showcasing the most innovative producers from the region.
Guests experienced a true celebration of our region’s most outstanding produce, grown, caught or raised by passionate producers and prepared by Celebrity Chef Matt Golinski, alongside some of our best and brightest chefs.
This event was presented as a feast to celebrate the quality and diversity of our region’s produce from our abundant earth and ocean. Throughout the evening, special guests shared stories and insights into how our food had been nurtured from farm to the plate.
A highlight of the night was a live audio-visual link from the kitchen, with Matt Golinski taking us through the background and preparations of each wonderful course as it was about to be served.
This event was made possible by the sponsors of the Mackay Isaac Whitsunday Food and Agritourism Project and the producers of our region.
