Whet Your Appetite Dinner

Overview

While you may be forgiven for thinking that all the bright young things of the culinary world are battling it out in the fiery pits of the MasterChef kitchen, it appears that a number of them have actually been working their way up through restaurants around the country. This Sunday, they all converge on Melbourne for the Electrolux Appetite for Excellence awards, but not before they showcase all they have to offer in a very special dinner that is sure to Whet Your Appetite.

The dinner is to be hosted on Sunday, 11 August, at Smith Street's Huxtable — a fitting venue, seeing as owner Daniel Wilson was once a Young Restaurateur finalist himself. In a collaboration between the upcoming chefs, restaurateurs and waiters, a unique three-course feast has been developed purely for the occasion, along with a selection of matching drinks. Great food will of course be matched with great conversation, as the up and coming talent will be on hand to discuss their culinary choices, expertise and creativity.

Whet your appetite and your curiosity and pull up a seat at the most coveted dinner table in Melbourne this week. Cravats and score cards optional.
