Autumn Scarf Dinners at Rupert on Rupert
Grab a sit-down dinner and give a helping hand to hospitality trainees.
Overview
Two sit-down courses for $40 in the inner north sounds almost to good to be true, and — to be honest — it almost is. Lucky for us, the only catch here is that you'll be helping out some young hospitality trainees whilst enjoying some delectable food at the same time. Doesn't seem like much of a compromise.
Scarf Dinners are back for 2016, and for their first season of the year, they'll be taking over Collingwood's Rupert on Rupert every Tuesday evening until May 24. While the venue would usually be closed on Tuesdays, Scarf trainees (marginalised youth who otherwise may not be able to get the hospitality experience they need) are given the opportunity to open the restaurant to the public for an otherwise normal night of dining. Rupert head chef Megan Morgan will be designing and cooking a special seasonal menu, which will include dishes like heirloom tomato with goats' curd, spicy jerk chicken and a chocolate kingston tart, served with gelato from Pidapipo. All food will be served by Scarf front-of-house trainees and their mentors.
Previous dinners have been held at Top Paddock, Green Park and Three Bags Full. The autumn Scarf Dinners will be held on Tuesday nights from April 5 until May 24. You can make a booking on their website from 6pm onwards.
