Several people have suggested that I organise a food & wine bloggers meet up.
Here is my suggestion:
Venue: Vegout community garden on the corner of Shakespeare Grove and Chaucer St, St Kilda, which is pretty funky. Yes, I know it is on my doorstep but it has the advantage of having cover (for when it rains), BBQs for both carnevores and vegetarians and a woodfired oven, which I’m told we can use.
Date: This is up to you but I’m suggesting a Monday or Tuesday evening in November. All you have to do is vote for one of these dates in comments: Monday 12, Tuesday 13, Monday 19, Tuesday 20, Monday 26, Tuesday 27. My preference in Monday 12.
Food: Bring your own to share. Pizzas, wet dishes, oven cooked risotto, burgers, salad, incredibly rich chocolate desserts, the lot. Perhaps a few of us could co-ordinate dishes via comments and blogs. Ditto booze.
Numbers: Put you name down now as I’ll need to confirm with Vegout.
What next? Spread the word on your blog.
Aspiring bloggers and partners welcome.

Hey Ed, perhaps it would be good to put the final date as an update at the beginning of this post?
What time will it get started? Looks like I’m going to be with a client until mid-evening, so looks I might not make it:( And I was even planning petit-fours!
Will have to retract my last statement about numbers for the food banquet.
At best there may be 2 of us turning up tonight (if it’s still going ahead- any final details/updates?) and unfortunately I won’t be there because of work commitments.
Apologies to all- but hopefully this will be a successful banquet with lots of yummy food!
Until next time…
ps. Was going to suggest if people were interested to meet up between the christmas new year’s period for another try eg.Sunday arvo on 30th of December by the yarra or in the botanical gardens? Will post something on FFF too.
Be well!
Guys, I’m probably the youngest blogger here, I mean my contribution is zilch so far. Would it be to much for you to meet a new face today?
M’s Nemisis, shame.
Ned kelly, please come. There’s no exclusivity here. this is open to anyone who blogs food or has an interest in it.
Thanks, looking forward to meet you all. I’ll bring something for the oven.
Cheers
Great Idea Ed.
Only just read about it but would be too far for me anyway, but something for the future maybe. Hope that the event was great fun. Now off to visit some of the other blogs that have commented.
