THE CURATED PLATE
The Curated Plate is a 10-day mouthwatering celebration of everything that makes the Sunshine Coast delicious – from local produce and chefs to the stunning landscapes from the sea to the hinterland. This festival is all about collaboration, with local producers, suppliers, and businesses teaming up to share their stories through not just food, but unforgettable experiences.
Each year, Sunshine Coast Foodie teams up with Yanalla Farms to host two amazing Curated Plate events.
The Glasshouse Country Long Lunch is truly an extended affair, with food lovers seated in long rows, right among the spectacular lychee orchards.
And the madly vibrant and wonderfully wacky Mad Hatter’s Tea Party is enough to rock the socks off any high-tea fanciers, all while having a spot of fun and laughter, with Sunshine Coast Foodie at the helm.
There always a ‘work it… own it’ moment, when guests strike a pose for that perfect Sunshine Coast Foodie social media shot.
