Fiction in the Kitchen
A treat for your mind as well as your tastebuds.
Overview
Our relationship between food and fiction runs deep. From Alice's poetic musings in Alice in Wonderland, to those surprisingly dark songs of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory's Oompa Loompas, our relationship with food is evident on the page — as anyone who felt hungry while reading Life of Pi can attest. Pay homage to this rich tradition by pairing it with a soul-warming feast of local produce and biodynamic wine. Held over two nights during the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival, it will be a sensory treat for the brain and palate with readings from the world’s best food fiction, a lamb feast from local ethical farmers, biodynamic wines from Delatite, and a chat with winemaker David Ritchie.
