Testimonials from previous events:

- Best venue – Harry & Frankie. Generous with 3 glasses of wine and nibbles and informative Barman commentary. Mardos – Enjoyable but surprised at ‘pub classics’ meal options. Imbibe Wine Bar was a nice starting point. Overall good value for money and look forward to next event.

- Loved all venues and owner/chef’s intro. Would do it again. Definitely recommend.

- Really enjoyed the day. Both wine venues were excellent and knowledgeable about their wines. Lunch was good but perhaps too much for me. Look forward to the next one.

- We enjoyed both of your events equally. The food today was very good as were the wines. We would definitely like to be part of any further events. Thank you Christine for your efforts organizing these for us.

- Thanks for organizing it, great idea to celebrate Port Melbourne. Thought the standouts were both wine bars – would do more of this. Mardos was nice but the food was very pub grub and would never have ordered a chicken parma but enjoyed celebrating the chefs. Great afternoon and will do it next time.

- Enjoyed the day. Only thing I’d say is, serving chicken parma when you are trainee chefs was not very adventurous.

- Really, really enjoyed it. Great concept and great way to meet people. New friendships have been forged. Especially enjoyed hearing all about Mardos – enlightened me and my wife and thinking about enquiring about a course. Would be great if they were more frequent.

- Loved it. Thank you Christine

- Loved it! So glad we joined. Good value. Loved learning about Mardos and there is no better wine place than Harry and Frankie. Would do it again happily and bring all my friends.

- The experience was great. Aaron at Harry and Frankie’s wine bar was very personable and knowledgeable. Lunch was great and was great to hear from the trainee chefs and what them tick.

- Very enjoyable. A great idea, well organized and good value. Hope this becomes an iconic annual event.
