- Click on the link to read Jill's latest blog post. Jill has been running FoodPath in the Southern Highlands of NSW with her partner Nick since April 2010. They have grown the business to a level where they now include a range of activities including tours, workshops and collaboration with others (cooking schools, wineries, etc). During the past 10 years Jill and Nick have got to know the local producers and continue to promote and support these local small businesses. They have organised and run many food related activities including taste education workshops and producer visits. It was after they organised a successful tour for a group of chefs from some of the best restaurants in Sydney that they realised they could turn their interest into a business - and this led to the setting up of FoodPath - Culinary Tours with a Difference. Now Jill and Nick are working closely with Southern Highlands Tourism and Wingecarribee Council to help raise the profile of their area as a food destination where everyone will benefit - tourists, local consumers and the producers themselves.

What a great idea - Sturt has started a Supper Club in their fabulous cafe!
Actually it was a delicious 3 course dinner prepared by Martial and Bridget Cosyn who manage the cafe. Seared scallops, organic veal and Stephane's wonderful chocolate mousse.
Very good - we'll be back!
If you get the chance - it was good value at $65 per head if you are a Friend of Sturt. $75 if you are not. Worth joining as a Friend because you find out what is going on in the Fine Craft Gallery. Check out their website.
We suggested they change the name to the Sturt Dinner Club because it was definitely more than supper.
Especially nice was the live music that we enjoyed (guitar and violin) which is to be a regular feature.
