At the Taste of Melbourne event, visitors will not only be able to taste food prepared by these great establishments (
in exchange for crowns ), but there will also be a host of workshops on offer; for example
Jaguar Gourmet Traveller WINE Theatre and
De Dietrich Cooking School . Also at the event is the
Taste Kitchen demonstrations stage, where leading chefs will reveal some of the tricks of the trade, plus you will get the chance to speak with the guest chefs directly at the
Australian Gourmet Traveller Chef's Table . Plus, you will have the chance to purchase specialty food and wine from some of the
best producers and boutique suppliers in Melbourne.
