FESTIVAL GUESTS
                  COLIN FASSNIDGE
                  Most will know Dublin born chef and restaurateur
                  Colin Fassnidge as a guest judge on top rating
                  program, My Kitchen Rules.
                  Known for his nose to tail cooking philosophy, the
                  Irishman firmly believes the secret to cooking a great
                  dish is planning and “having a bit of love for the food”.
                  A father of two who counts pork, potato, lemon and
                  peas among his favourite ingredients to cook with,
                  you can see Colin in action this weekend:

                  SAT 4 MAY: 3pm – 3:45pm
                  Lamb Butchery Masterclass with Pyrenees Premium
                  Cuts plus chargrilled lamb back strap (DM)

                  SUN 5 MAY: 11am – 11.45pm
                  Milk Poached Pork Neck (DM)

                  SARAH GLOVER
                  For 16 years Sarah Glover has made a career as a
                  chef in Tasmania, Sydney and New York but these
                  days you rarely find her in a kitchen, the outdoors
                  is where she now plies her trade.
                  The fascination with cooking in the wild has long
                  been with Sarah Glover, but was reignited when
                  she returned to Tasmania. There, on the sands of
                  a beach and deep in the heart of the island she first
                  called home, she realised her kitchen didn’t need to
                  be constructed to a metal bench under fluorescent
                  lights, but rather it should – be taken outdoors.
                  Be mesmerised with Sarah’s style this weekend:
