Featuring a 5-course menu by some of Melbourne’s most talented chefs — with matched beverages, table service by Scarf Graduates and a live auction filled with exclusive ‘Money Can’t Buy’ items and experiences — this is your chance to do so much more than dine.
This is a celebratory evening of epic proportions; as well as indulging in delicious food and drink, you’ll hear from Scarf Graduates in a Q&A about their experience on the program and what they’ve done since graduating.
