Commune for a captivating culinary journey amongst the clouds as acclaimed cookbook author Julia Busuttil Nishimura crafts a feast for all senses at Melbourne Town Hall, set beneath the striking installation Einder by Boris Acket.
Busuttil Nishimura’s Mediterranean roots and mastery of market-fresh ingredients take centre stage in this intimate long-table affair, complemented by the mesmerising rhythms of a thunderstorm unfolding in real-time through light and sound.
The menu mirrors the storm’s raw chaos and beauty – meticulously crafted yet gloriously unpredictable, echoing the forces above and the seasons below. Each dish reflects a profound connection to land and produce, an ode to the fleeting impermanence of nature.
This rare, one-night-only event invites surrender to forces beyond control, whether on the palate or in the atmospheric surge above. As culinary and audio-visual artistry converge, the memory will linger long after the last bite.
