J and I (and others!) shared a meaty platter from Tas Game & Gourmet. It was about $35 but great value for money, with plenty of scallops, abalone, venison, buffalo, goat, wallaby, cheese kransky squeezed onto the plate with salad, wedges and chutney.

Mum and I shared a few dishes on another night. First up was a premium platter from Meadowbank ($16). This was excellent, with a chicken and pistachio sausage, pork rillette, duck liver pate, air-dried beef, duck terrine, brie, bread, gherkins and pickled onions.

We also had a plate of Nepalese lamb curry from the Vanidols stall, along with one of each of their spring rolls and curry puffs. All delicious!

I enjoyed discovering the new Small Players cider range, which is made by Holm Oak Vineyards. They have ciders in sweet, dry and perry varieties; sweet was my favourite.

I introduced mum to the Tasmanian Chilli Beer Co's excellent raspberry sparkling drink.

On the last day I enjoyed some of the old favourite Taste dishes on the second-last day, when the crowds had died down. Waji's calamari:

And tempura mushrooms.

Nom!
did you see the seafood sausages down the end bit? (Brasserie?) They were the only new unique things I saw, I had the chilli salmon, was pretty tasty!

I also had the waji calamari, so good! Even my nieces ate it, which surprised me.
Ya - saw them, admired a plate of them that Nathan had. They are at the Farm Gate Market most weekends :)
