Lyndey delivered above and beyond our expectations. Â
Lyndey took the time to visit Streaky Bay to meet the growers, artisan fishers and local businesses to scope the produce and to design the menu. She also worked brilliantly with our local chefs and hospitality staff to ensure the event was on point and showcased our local produce in the best possible manner.
Needles to say the event was a great success!Â
