HEAT's Homeless Lunch

Prepared by Hospitality Education and Training (HEAT) students, this fine dining lunch will host over 230 people who are currently homeless or have been in the past at the mouth of Luna Park. This dining experience, designed by HEAT patron Guy Grossi, gives Melbourne’s homeless community the chance to come together and be treated to a rare three-course lunch while also raising awareness of the issues surrounding homelessness and disadvantage.

You can't actually attend this lunch, but by making a ticket donation, you can assist disadvantaged youth in developing self-esteem and gain accredited training qualifications — and give someone the gift of a hot lunch. And that’s the most fulfilling Melbourne Food and Wine Festival event we’ve heard of yet.
