Since opening it’s doors with crowds of over 1000 people on its first weekend of trade, Taste has become synonymous with offering retail theatre like nowhere else in Australia. Unbeatable prices on popular & unique items combined with a day of complimentary culinary delights has meant that literally hundreds of people make the pilgrimage to Taste on an event day.

Owners Jodie & Jens vision is to promote a love of cooking in everyone, and to that effect have hosted regular events at Taste, allowing the public to meet with speciality food producers and guest chefs in an informal atmosphere.

Customers will often line up an hour before the event to make sure that they get the most out of it the event and secure advertised lines. Our most recent event Taste of Spice, which attracted 900 on the day, saw early birds not only entertained by a band, but served complimentary breakfast as well as tea by Brisbane’s tea royalty, Julie from Queenies. Plenty of giveaways including spice packs that were custom created for 100 Taste customers by Nandos and valued at $30 each. Restaurant vouchers, tastings and Jamie Oliver Cookware added to the giveaways on the day.

The event prior to that was Taste the Mediterranean, with highlights that included an question and answer session with Brisbane leading expert on coffee, Phillip Di Bella from Di Bella coffee. There were thousands of dollars worth of giveaways including 50 tins of new release Di Bella coffee, cookware, restaurant vouchers, and free tastings. Throughout the day vistors had the opportunity to view & taste the creations of true food artisians including Fotini from Artini’s as well as Gaetano from Gerbino’s pasticceria.
