The outstanding TasTAFE Drysdale’s 2017 Great Chef Series will bring some of the world’s best chefs to Tasmania to work with Drysdale students and offer degustation dinners to the public.
The Great Chefs Series will extend dinners to both Launceston and Hobart in 2017, and is an opportunity for some of the most influential culinary minds in the world to collaborate with students using Tasmanian produce partnered with Tasmanian wines.
The 2017 line-up includes three international chefs who will be in Australia to coincide with the World’s Best 50 Restaurant Awards in Melbourne - Alain Passard, Dominque Crenn and Christian Puglisi.
They will travel to Tasmania in late March and early April to mentor students and provide the opportunity to learn new techniques as they prepare a 10 course degustation dinners for the public.
Tasmania’s own David Moyle will also be participating in the Great Chefs series as co-owner and head chef of Hobart’s Franklin, which is also part of the World’s Best 50 Restaurant Awards.
From late April 2017 TasTAFE Drysdale will deliver a further series of Great Chefs Series degustation dinners to coincide with regional tourism activities to maximise tourism and visitation opportunities.
