Loving the long lunch

The Eumundi Rotary Long Lunch is back for another year and all food-lovers are invited to enjoy a delicious meal while raising funds for charity.
Diners will enjoy scrumptious food while sitting beneath the gorgeous fig trees in the Original Eumundi Markets.
This year’s theme will be Carnivale, with the venue to be brightly decorated and a three-course share menu to match the fun theme will be created by international chefs Andy Dundas of The Figtree and Ned Nolan of The Bohemian Bungalow.
Celebrity chef Matt Golinski will also be giving a cooking demonstration while the Doo Wop Dolls will return to provide the live entertainment.
The Rotary Club of Eumundi president Greg Molyneux said the club was excited to once again be a part of the community event that raises funds for charity.
Monies raised this year will be donated to the Katie Rose Cottage, Cittamani Hospice and the Hummingbird House.
“Previous Long Lunches have been a great success raising well over $30,000 to support this valuable work,” he said.
