Maggie Beer's Kitchen & Farm Shop. Cooking demonstrations held every weekday at 2pm - Guess who got to help out! Alistair cooked the Porcini Mushrooms with loads of butter & Verjuice, a very ancient product which Maggie introduced to the world after having an excess of unripe green grapes and not wanting to waste anything she found recipes that the farming peasants of yesteryear used also not wanting to waste anything.

Beautiful kitchen all paid for by ABC to produce the Cook and the Chef. The programme was so successful they had to double the set kitchen so they could free up the actual restaurant kitchen. Maggie was in residence filming for another company when we arrived.  Later on we sat in on a cooking demonstration by her food assistant MaryAnne who sold us on the product "Verjuice"

Two new chefs at Maggie Beer's kitchen in Nuriootpa- had to refuse their offer as we were too busy traveling around Australia! Lots of fun and if your in the area it's a must do.
