Cooking with truffles - Fungi Feastival

Cook with Matteo Ponti, Head Chef at Mimosa Winery and Naden Lim, in an indulgent truffle masterclass. Learn professional techniques, unlock rich seasonal flavours, and create restaurant-quality dishes showcasing local truffles. A delicious, hands-on experience for food lovers and aspiring chefs.

Matteo, an Italian chef who earned his first Michelin star at just 30, brings a refined yet approachable style rooted in tradition and seasonality. Nadene trained across multiple Michelin-starred restaurants.

Now based at Mimosa Wines, they are embracing Australia's exceptional produce—working closely with local ingredients and producers to showcase the region at its best.

In collaboration with Gulaga Gold, this special Fungi Feastival session will explore the unique character of locally grown truffles. Matteo and Nadene will guide you through their approach to cooking with fresh truffles—sharing techniques, flavour pairings, and professional insights to help you get the most out of this prized ingredient.

This experience includes a live cooking demonstration, guided tasting of truffle dishes and a take-home recipe booklet.

Expect bold flavours, refined simplicity, and practical knowledge you can bring straight into your own kitchen.

A must for food lovers, home cooks, and anyone looking to elevate their cooking with truffle.

To make the most of your weekend, consider booking a truffle lunch created by Matteo on the Saturday at Mimosa Wines and a truffle hunt on Sunday at Gulaga Gold.
