This Friday, add a touch of sweet indulgence to your morning and
visit Wheeler Street Reserve for 'Crepes by the Sea'.
The Edgewater Hotel, located on the shores of Mersey River, will
host its final event as part of the Devonport Food & Wine
Festival, which concludes at the end of the month.
Manager of the Edgewater Hotel Michael Wyett recently
participated in the Taste the Harvest festival by producing the
'Edge BBQ Plate' which included wood-fired oven bread, cheese and
bacon and za'atar herb breads, marinated chicken and beef kebabs
and zesty potato salad.
"Being our first year, we planned to cater for 300 BBQ platters
and by end of the day, we had sold 280 - we were delighted," Mr
Wyett said.
Mr Wyett believes Friday's 'Crepes by the Sea' event will be
just as successful.
"Crepes will be one of the many dishes trialed on the specials
board in The Port, our new restaurant at The Edgewater Hotel," he
said.
"This event will provide the opportunity to see if people enjoy
crepes.
"This Friday we are serving a sweet crepe breakfast plate
consisting of two crepes, one filled with hot cinnamon apple and
the other with chilled wild berries, garnished with Chantilly cream
and laced with Leatherwood honey and a sprig of mint.
"Mr Wyett said there was good reason to highlight the importance
of Tasmanian produce on the North West Coast.
"Tasmania's foods and wines are exceptional in quality and taste
- we have delicious options at our fingertips and it is a great
feeling to source ingredients locally," he said.
Mr Wyett also has a tip for those who are a little worried about
their waistline.
"Eat your crepes quickly, so the calories don't have time to
count!"
Enjoy a morning tea with your colleagues or friends on
Friday 25 March 2011.
