Sunshine Coast Asian Food Festival returns

In its fourth year, The Sunshine Coast Asian Food Festival returns to the serene rainforest grounds of Spicers Tamarind Retreat on Saturday 28 February 2021 from 1pm to 6pm.

It’s the perfect occasion to gather friends and family for an afternoon of vibrant Asian Street food, refreshing beverages, great sounds, cooking demos, riesling masterclasses and relaxing pleasures.

Indulge in flavoursome Asian Street Food by The Tamarind’s highly acclaimed Head Chef, Daniel Jarrett.

The Tamarind, under the inspired direction of Daniel, has earned an enviable reputation on the Sunshine Coast for Modern Asian cuisine.

Awarded one Chef Hat in the 2018 and 2020 National Good Food Guides, The Tamarind’s menu is mod-Asian fusion at its best – effortlessly combining sweet, sour and spicy flavours with fresh local produce – the perfect meeting of traditional and new.

Leading an Asian fusion experience however originally French trained, Daniel continues to delight modern Thai and mod-Asian food lovers in South East Queensland. His passion for food, combined with his outstanding culinary ability has seen him receive a number of awards, most notably a One Chef Hat in the 2018, 2020 and 2021 Australian Good Food Guide awards.

At the event you can expect to quench your thirst with local beverages and brews and tinker with inspired cocktails from Noosa’s Fortune Distillery including their irresistible gins and vodkas.

Sip on stunning wines from the family owned Brockenchack Winery based in Barossa’s Eden Valley and gain new cooking skills by attending the Asian cooking demonstrations hosted by The Tamarind’s talented chefs in their on-site Cooking School.

Meander thru the lush and serene rainforest of Tamarind Retreat and lounge on ‘bring-your-own’ picnic blankets and cushions on the slopes of the natural grassed amphitheatre.

Listen to the cool sounds of the live entertainment or wander from street stall to street stall to be tempted by the food and drinks, and to chat to the knowledgeable experts.
