Native Bounty Feast
Saturday Evening 4th April : Separately ticketed at $99 (incl booking fee) with the purchase of a General Admission ticket. Includes a glass of local wine.
The Native Feast menu was designed by Chef Timothy Hardy, a proud fifth generation Tasmanian Aboriginal.
Timothy is a keen surfer and a lover of all things Tasmanian, particularly its wild places, the ocean, the ancient forests and mountains. Within these areas he is constantly foraging and furthering his knowledge of edibles – places that awaken his senses, excite and inspire his cooking.
Timothy has been a Chef at world class restaurants across the globe, from Michelin- starred restaurants in Europe to award winning Brae Restaurant in country Victoria.
Now based back in Tasmania, Timothy is currently building his own restaurant, Van Bone, at Marion Bay. Van Bone is where sustainability and locality are the key focus and ethos, within a beautiful and intimate setting.
Timothy’s menu for ECHO Festival will reflect deeply towards indigenous culture and cuisine. He will be collaborating with 2019 ECHO Chef, Sean Keating of Piermont's Homestead Restaurant.
