The 2009 Merivale Winter Feasts programme has been launched, and what great deals there are! Things were kicked off with a free-for-all at establishment, which highlighted the restaurants and chefs involved. The restaurants are offering a range of courses for $35 pp for lunch and dinner, so it's all (very) good.It’s clever of the merivale group to let the restaurants promote their menus in this manner. The chefs and staff were on hand to set up, serve and chat to the customers, which in itself is a great marketing tool. And the food – it was absolutely fantastic, with canapés and drinks provided.
I was fortunate enough to trail in with VIP chocolatesuze and got to photograph the venue (and food) before the crowds arrived. Thanks, Suze!
Here is a brief rundown of the event:
