Pasta Masterclasses at Carnevale

Natalie von Bertouch

19 January 2012

Carnevale, the Italian festival, is taking place on 11/12 February 2012 at the Adelaide Showgrounds. It’s no surprise that a celebration of all things Italian should be including pasta masterclasses.

The classes will be conducted by Adam Swanson (of Glenelg’s Zucca) and for two of these sessions he’ll be joined by Australian Diamond Natalie von Bertouch. When she’s not playing netball von Bertouch is also a dietitian so she’ll be providing tips on making healthier pasta sauces.

Adam and Natalie are both brand ambassadors for San Remo pasta, Carnevale’s patron sponsor. San Remo will be supplying the pasta for the master classes.

You can see Adam and Natalie at 2:45pm on Saturday and 2:15pm on Sunday, or Adam only at 6pm Saturday and 5:30pm Sunday.

Prawn and White Wine Masterclass

 

 

10 January 2012

The second Cellar Door Festival is taking place in Adelaide from 24 – 26 February and this year the masterclass schedule will be extended to include an SA King Prawn and White Wine Showcase Masterclass.   Chef Simon Bryant, formerly of the Hilton and also of The Cook and The Chef fame, will be joined by students from Le Cordon Bleu and will create a selection of prawn tasting dishes.  The dishes, cooked using Marine Stewardship Council certified Spencer Gulf King Prawns, will be paired with a selection of South Australia’s finest white wines.

Simon Bryant will be joined by Aaron Brasher of Wine Australia.

There will be just 60 tickets available for the two masterclasses – one held at 1pm on the Saturday and the other at 2:30pm on the Sunday.  The tickets are $40 per person and are available through the Cellar Door website.

Coopers to Sponsor the Garden of Unearthly Delights

 

 

3 Jan 2012

Coopers will be sponsoring the Garden of Unearthly Delights in 2012.  The South Australian brewery will be both major sponsor and official beer supplier of the Garden for the first time this year (that’s 2012) in a partnership which will continue three years.

There will be ten Coopers bars for festival goers to choose from and all your favourite Coopers beers (including Sapporo) will be available.

2012 is also Coopers’ 150th birthday and the Garden’s 10th season – so that’s probably something like 160 reasons to get down to Rundle Park and have a cold beer this Fringe!
