Melton’s best restaurants, bars and venues will be in the spotlight later this month as part of the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival.
Venues in Aintree and Caroline Springs will be taking part in Westside Wanders, a progressive tour during which participants stop for a bite and drink and each venue.
This is the second year Melton has taken part in the festival program.
This series complements Eat Drink Westside, a unique collaboration between Melbourne’s western region councils, Melbourne Food and Wine Festival and Western Melbourne Tourism.
Eat Drink Westside started in 2016 and it shines a light on the area’s culinary gems and enviable food community.
Mayor Lara Carli said Melton council was proud to partner with the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival.
“You don’t have to travel across the city to have great dining experiences. You can get it right here,” she said.
Western Melbourne Tourism chairperson Scott Chapman said the organisation valued the strong partnership with Food and Wine Victoria in the delivery of the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival and in presenting the very best of the west
in food from around the world.
