NOOSA shines as the lead role in a reinvigorated TV Show set to air this month.
Former MasterChef contestants Dan Churchill and Hayden Quinn will lead a new version of Surfing the Menu, the 2003 cooking and travel series that was instrumental in launching the TV careers of chefs Ben O’Donohue and Curtis Stone.
Surfing the Menu is one of ABC’s most successful cooking formats, having been sold in over 70 countries. Now it is being reworked by Noma Films with MasterChef pals Dan Churchill and Hayden Quinn, retitled as Surfing the Menu: The Next Generation.
Dan and Hayden share a love of cooking, surfing, fresh food, travel and adventure and that’s exactly what the new series Surfing the Menu: The Next Generation is all about.
In this series, Dan and Hayden head off on an adventure around Australia in their trusty, rusty 50-year-old VW Bug, nicknamed GiGi.
On the journey, they headed to pristine Noosa where the boys surfed at Noosa Main Beach, kitesurfed at Castaways Beach and cooked up a storm with delicious local produce.
The boys turn these fresh ingredients into simple, healthy and delightfully delicious recipes that will inspire you.
Catch Noosa as the show debuts on ABC1 on Sunday 22 May at 6pm.
