Winner: The Brasserie at Hilton Adelaide
The Brasserie at Hilton Adelaide celebrates the true essence of South Australian produce with its Seriously South Australian! Promotion, a joint venture with the best regional providores, farmers, growers and suppliers. It showcases South Australian produce simply, elegantly, and without pretension.
Judges were impressed with The Brasserie's ability to introduce the grower and producer to the end consumer in a high end restaurant, thereby leapfrogging the supply chain and dealing direct with the chef who is going to prepare the products.
The passion exhibited by staff at the Hilton combined with their personalised visits to growers, their experiences that they were able to relay with regard to those farm visits painted a mental picture of how to pull things together in a robust business manner that seems to work for all involved.
Hilton Adelaide is to be congratulated in taking the initiative and risk to promote South Australian Regional Produce in their restaurant.
The opportunity afforded regional supplier’s to appear on the menu at the Hilton exposes them and South Australia to a huge number of international and national visitors. This showcases South Australia as a supplier of superb quality food products to the rest of Australia and the World.
