Mornington Peninsula Top Chefs
Crafted by a dream team of local culinary leaders, the menu showcases top Mornington Peninsula talent including:
Brunno Melo – 2025 AHA Chef of the Year nominee, Head Chef at Audrey’s
Josep Espuga – multi-MICHELIN star and Chef Hat’s winner, Culinary Director at Pt. Leo Estate
Marco Di Pietrantonio – Owner and Chef at Italico Sorrento

All proceeds from the Taste Gala Lunch support The Portsea Camp, a not-for-profit organisation that has changed the lives of over 70,000 Victorian children since 1946. Funds raised will go directly to the Camp’s “Make a Difference” programs, providing transport, care, meals, and life-affirming seaside holidays to children from disadvantaged and regional backgrounds.
“The Gala brings together chefs, winemakers, and guests who all care deeply about supporting our young people. It’s food with purpose — and the beginning of something special for Sorrento this winter.”
