And a long lunch
It’s become a lower Hunter tradition, the Lovedale Long Lunch, with the first one held 1994 — there are even some still alive who attended. It’s a doddle. You go to Lovedale, you buy a plate ($20) and a glass ($4) and you swan around eating and drinking. There are seven wineries taking part and they all vie with each other to cook up the best contribution. To get all the details, go to www.lovedalelonglunch.com.au
The long lunch not only lives, it rocks. May 17 and 18, 10am–4pm
