James St Food and Wine Trail 2017

Overview

If you're a Brisbanite with a healthy appetite, there's only one place to be this weekend. Take your rumbling stomach and its yearning for something scrumptious down to James Street, and fill it with tasty treats.

For a massive four days from July 27 to 30, the New Farm precinct becomes a foodie wonderland for the sixth year running, once again highlighting the gastronomic delights of the area. That includes devouring delicious dishes and drinks, of course, regardless of what kind of food, beverage or event takes your fancy. And, it also boasts a whole day of market activity.

Between Thursday and Saturday, four main options will tempt cuisine lovers: a sake and rare Japanese whiskey collaboration between Harvey's and Bar Gyu+ of Niseko; vacation-style Italian eats at Bucci; foodie fun at Scrumptious Reads; and cooking classes at James St Cooking School. Then, come Sunday, more than 27 businesses will unleash their wares spanning everything from fish to wine to baked goods to yiros, plus cooking demos, two stages of live music and a pop-up kitchen.
