Next on 15 Jun 2025 from 10:30am to 12:30pmTruffle Hunt and French Brunch with Chef Christophe and Josephine
Overview
Chef Christophe and Josephine offer immersive culinary experiences that blend French and Italian heritage with Australian charm. Their events include hands-on cooking classes, intimate truffle hunts, and bespoke food and wine tours across Australia and abroad.
At their truffle farm in Bungendore, just outside Canberra, guests can join a truly unique experience: foraging for black truffles alongside Largo, their enthusiastic Border Collie and expert truffle hunter.
Your morning begins with a warm welcome and the crisp country air. Rug up in outdoor gear and follow Largo as he sniffs out prized black truffles beneath the winter soil. Don't forget to reward him with his favourite game of fetch!
After the hunt, gather for a live cooking demonstration by Chef Christophe as he prepares egg brouillard — a luxurious French-style soft scramble infused with freshly unearthed truffle. Served on a warm baguette with fresh salad, and your choice of tea or coffee, this rustic long-table brunch is a feast to remember.
As you dine, Chef Christophe shares stories, cooking tips, and insights into the world of truffle farming. Before you leave, browse a selection of fresh truffles and handcrafted products like truffle butter and truffle salt to take home.
The experience concludes after two hours — but the memories linger.
