What's in store on this sunrise food adventure
The Food
From the very first look at produce at the bustling wholesale market this day is what food dreams are made of. Mid-morning brings a retro café breakfast where conversation flows easily, followed by jewel-like handmade chocolates shared with fellow food lovers. Meet one of Perth’s most-loved family running their busy butcher shop, then enjoy wine tasting accompanied by a Charcuterie Board at the next door boutique bottle shop bursting with local tipples. Unforgettable discoveries at every turn.
The People
The real magic is in the people you’ll meet. Hear the market CEO proudly share the inside story of Perth’s buzzing trading floor and chat to knowledgeable wholesalers, meet a young chef who is redefining brekky in Perth, and be dazzled by a young chocolatier making jewel-like treats. Learn from the warm guidance of a sommelier as he shares his expertly curated local range of drinks. Finally, meet the third generation butcher leading their family business on to a new era – we’ll be welcomed like familiar friends!

The early morning start is rewarded with rare access to Perth’s wholesale produce market, offering a fascinating glimpse into the network of growers, wholesalers and food businesses that help feed our city each day. From there, the tour weaves its way through a wonderfully diverse collection of food businesses, each reflecting a different thread in Perth’s rich food story.
