(No BYO food or beverages please) |
Nestled among the 42 acres Peninsula Hot Springs site, a
Carnivale Food Court will include a classic Aussie barbecue
stall, sweet and savoury French crepes, Mexican foods and freshly made King
Sushi Japanese.
The Aussie barbecue will feature such favourites as chicken
shaslicks, egg and
bacon sandwiches and great hamburgers, all very moderately
priced.
In the Bathe Café chef Ros O'Keeffe is working up an
indigenous themed
menu for the three days of Carnivale, which will include
kangaroo fillet and lemon myrtle. Ros and the Bathe team are
also researching barramundi, crocodile and possibly even emu
as menu inclusions.
"Everything will be as much local produce as we possibly
can, and it'll be fresh and seasonal - that's my focus
always with the café menu," Ros said. |

For an exotic and indulgent treat, Coco Loco will have a
stall featuring their
chocolat "CocoTails". These include "BossaLoca" (Cardamom
Chocolat),
Baba Love (Ginger Chocolat), LoveFire (Chili Chocolat), and
"CocoParamour"
Vanilla Chocolat.These beverages are available hot or cold
with a choice of
dairy or soy milk.
Ros has been selling this range in the Bathe Café recently,
with great response: "An exotic chocolate, these are really
different - my personal
favorite is the spiced orange "Kleopatra's Brew", not a
Jaffa type sweet flavour
but a really nice, interesting spice blend. They're new to
the Bathe Café and
already a hit." |

| A Carnivale Tea House will also be set up on
site featuring a range of world teas, including samples of The Living Buddha Rare Herbal Tea from Yunnan
Province, China.
Freshly squeezed juices will be available at juice stands
throughout Carnivale
2006. You can choose your own blend or go with the Bathe
Café recommendations, which include 'Detox'- a cleansing
tall glass of fresh beetroot, ginger, carrot, celery and
apple juices.
Also highly recommended is
"ReHarmonise" - carrot, pineapple and orange. There's also "ReJuvenate"
-
an uplifting blend of apple, pear, celery and kiwi fruit.
You could also have a
"Wild Berry" smoothie - a mix of berries, yoghurt, icecream,
milk and honey. |

Red Hill Brewery will set up a bar at
Peninsula Hot Springs, making its range
of quality, handcrafted beers available for Carnivale 2006.
The brewery's year-round range includes Golden Ale, Wheat
Beer, and a Scotch Ale. Seasonal beers are also produced.
The Red Hill Brewery is unique as their beers are made from
their own hopyard onsite, organically grown. Brewers Dave
and Karen Golding use the whole hop flowers, dried in Red
Hill, in their brewing process.
They grow five varieties of hops: Hallertauer, Tettnanger,
Golding, Willamette and Pride of Ringwood. The fertile soil
at Red Hill has meant that the hops are abundant. |
