KI Food Safari

Following the sell-out success of the inaugural KI Food Safari in 2011, the event returns in 2012, once again with a star-studded foodie cast and with a new partner in Australian Gourmet Traveller magazine! The 6 night event kicks off at Southern Ocean Lodge 25-31 August 2012 and is a hands-on, muddy-boots paddock and vineyard discovery of Kangaroo Island's best produce and its journey to the plates and glasses at the lauded Southern Ocean Lodge.

We are honoured to welcome the return of South Australia's own Maggie Beer and Simon Bryant to interchange as KI Food Safari Leaders; each will guide excursions from farm to winery to choose the finest and freshest produce for the evening's menu. Guests can expect star appearances throughout by local producers and food personalities. The Safari will travel across Kangaroo Island, a destination emerging globally as an island of exceptional food producers who operate on a mostly small scale, sustainable and personal basis. The Safari 'troopers' will meet producers, taste straight from the source and hear remarkable stories along the way.

The six night itinerary will include a working experience at the Sheep Milk Dairy, a visit to the green pastures of Southrock Lamb and the shady groves of KI Olive Oil. Guests might pluck marron and abalone from the farm and shuck oysters from the leases at American River. Relax with good company and enjoy fine winery lunches, cooking demonstrations, Southern Ocean BBQs and sunset drinks at Remarkable Rocks. Finish with the day's harvest celebrated in a spectacular menu enjoyed around the table at Southern Ocean Lodge.
