The Barossa Long Lunch Food Trail
Butchers, cheese, Italian pasta and a long table at FINO — a day built entirely around the Barossa's table.
The plan
The Barossa eats as well as it drinks, and this trail puts the food front and centre. The trick is to graze your way through the morning so you arrive at lunch hungry but not desperate, and to let the long lunch be exactly that — long.
Begin with coffee and pastry at Casa Carboni in Angaston, where the pasta is made by hand, then stock a picnic hamper: smoked meats from Schulz Butchers, a wedge from the Barossa Valley Cheese Company and whatever looks good at the Barossa Farmers Market if it is a Saturday.
The main event
Build the day around a long lunch at seppeltsfield" class="text-secondary hover:underline underline-offset-4">FINO Seppeltsfield, one of the region's benchmark dining rooms, where the cooking is generous and the afternoon is meant to drift. Walk it off around the historic Seppeltsfield estate, then finish with provisions for the road at Maggie Beer's Farm.
Book the lunch well ahead, wear something with a forgiving waistband, and don't plan anything for the evening.
