Rick Stein - wine and cheese evening

Sunshine Coast Council’s library branches invite you to join award-winning English chef and restaurateur Rick Stein for an evening of wine and cheese at Nambour Civic Centre on Monday, August 25 at 6pm.

Rick Stein’s passion for using good-quality local produce and his talent for creating delicious flavour combinations in his books and restaurant have won him a host of awards, accolades and fans. As well as presenting a number of television series, he has published many best-selling cookery books, including Rick Stein’s Seafood, French Odyssey, Coast to Coast, Far Eastern Odyssey, Spain and most recently Rick Stein’s India. His memoir Under a Mackerel Sky was shortlisted for a British Book Award in 2013. 

Rick is a firm supporter of sustainable farming and fishing techniques, which he strives to maintain in Padstow and Falmouth, Cornwall where he runs five acclaimed restaurants and a seafood cookery school, as well as a delicatessen, patisserie and fishmongers and The Cornish Arms pub in nearby St Merryn. In 2003 Rick was awarded an OBE for services to West Country tour­ism. He divides his time between Padstow and Australia where he opened a restaurant, Rick Stein at Bannisters, in 2009. 

Rick will share his 40 year career of perfecting the art of seafood cookery. Make sure you book early to avoid disappointment.
