On 10 October 2020, Abbot John donned a kitchen apron to share his former life as a chef, working in some of Melbourne’s finest award- winning restaurants of the 1980s. In 2021 & 2022 a series of seasonal dinners in the French tradition were offered and booked out well in advance.
We are pleased to announce the date for the second dinner in 2023, to be held at the grand old New Norcia Hostel:
‘La Table de l’Abbé’
The Abbot’s Table
AUTUMN: Saturday 20 May 2023
While monastic life may seem to be in stark contrast to the restaurant scene, it is the spirit of hospitality which is at the heart of them both. Monastic life – and indeed, cooking – are about being in tune with, and having respect for, the rhythm, balance and produce of the seasons.
This series celebrates a set four-course menu of fresh seasonal produce and showcase New Norcia wood-fired bakery products, olive oil, Abbey Ale and Abbey wines, to be shared with family and friends – or strangers – in this special place, a town like no other.
In the spirit of community, guests will sit together at long tables throughout the venue.
- Pre-dinner drinks begin at 6.00 p.m.
- All-inclusive dinner: $180 per person
- When booking, please notify us of any special dietary requirements
