New South Wales: Is It Australia’s Most Delicious State?
Ask any food-obsessed traveller where they’d point a fork first in Australia, and New South Wales has a very strong case. From harbour-side Sydney restaurants to cellar doors in the Hunter Valley, farm-to-table dinners in Orange, and coastal feasts in Byron Bay, NSW is where Australian food and wine culture is at its most varied, most creative, and frankly most delicious
Hunter Valley – The wine region that punches above its postcode
If you’ve ever wondered how a wine region can be both a big deal and delightfully low-fuss at the same time, the Hunter Valley has you covered. It’s widely recognised as Australia’s oldest wine region, with vine-growing history stretching back to the early 1800s, yet it stays refreshingly down to earth.
Concrete Jungles, Gourmet Harvests
Who says you have to hike into the wilderness to find the good stuff? Honestly, sometimes the best “terroir” is found exactly three blocks from your hotel. Australia’s cities are bursting with flavour, and you don’t need a 4WD to find it—just a pair of walking shoes and a healthy appetite. Taste Marketplace has done the legwork (literally) to find the urban legends, the back-alley bars, and the floating picnics that make city life delicious.
Australia’s Best Seafood Experiences: Get Hooked
Australia’s relationship with seafood isn’t just about a “shrimp on the barbie” (which, let’s be real, we call prawns anyway). With some of the cleanest water on the planet, our coastline is basically a giant, delicious buffet. But why just order from a menu when you can go straight to the source? Taste Marketplace has found the experiences that take you off the shore and into the thick of it. We’re talking about meeting the farmers, pulling the pots, and eating seafood so fresh it was probably swimming ten minutes ago.
Beyond the Usual
Forget the stuffy cellar doors and the “swirl-sniff-sip” routine. If you think a food tour is just a long lunch with a side of white tablecloth, we’ve got some news: Australia’s food scene has gone rogue in the best way possible. Taste Marketplace has hunted down the experiences that actually let you meet the legends behind the labels. Here are our favourite ways to get your hands dirty (and your glass full) across the country.
