Orange Food Week

A couple of years ago  we were in Orange, NSW, for some friends' wedding. It just happened to coincide with the Orange Food Week and we were lucky enough to see some of what Orange had on offer. We hadn't booked into any of the big events, but walking through Orange we were able to get a taste of fresh, locally grown produce, baked goods and breakfast. I remember taking some kind of fruit back home and something from the very good kitchen shop on the main street. I don't know what it was, but I remember being happy. The other thing I recall was a good meal at a big pub and some nice cafes to choose from. 

We're thinking of taking an overnight trip either this weekend or next, depending on how the home decorating goes (yes Tim, we're painting again). If you've got nothing planned, you could do much worse than take a leisurely drive into some beautiful country and sample the culinary delights on offer. At least check out the website for inspiration.
