    Visiting the Huon Valley in the Winter

    Huon Valley weather frustrates visitors who expect one simple forecast to cover the whole day. The valley does not behave like a flat, uniform region. River frontage, hills, shade, moving air, and the time the sun leaves your side of the valley all shape how the weather feels on the ground. The broad pattern is straightforward enough. Conditions are generally milder than many mainland guests expect, cooler and wetter in winter, and more comfortable than harsh in summer. The part that catches people out is the local variation. At Riverfront Estate, that local variation matters more than the headline forecast. A day that looks ideal for paddling at lunch can…

    Fat Pig Farm Returns

    Anchovy at Fat Pig Farm – The Residency We have long admired Thi Le’s cooking, from her collab she did at Dark MOFO in Hobart a few year’s back and from afar when she cooks at her Richmond based Vietnamese inspired eatery. Sadie even took me to Melbourne’s Anchovy in the week pre Covid, on a very rare date night in Melbourne. Sadie ended up spending half the night talking to Thi, showing each other photos of radicchio and swapping tips on market gardeners and produce while I just rejoiced in the flavours. This is some of the most individual food I’ve tried, with complexity, honesty, and personality, all on…
