Taste of the Loire opens Friday.

It starts with a crisp tartlet of smashed spring peas, mint and whipped goat cheese. Then the scallops, the lamb, the tarte Tatin. Four courses, whole table, $130 a head.

The pairing is $100. The whole menu is built around Loire w**e and it is a different meal without it. Friday 9 October to Friday 6 November. A surcharge of 10% applies on Sundays and 15% on public holidays.

Ive been nominated for the French-Australian Excellence Awards. The public vote picks a finalist outright, so it genuinely counts. Would you vote for me? Link is in the first comment.

It closes 19 October. Takes about thirty seconds. You put in your email, they send you a code, you click it, done. Look for my name, Matthew Carnell, Bistro Terroir.

Le Courrier Australien run it under the patronage of the French Embassy, and the ceremony is in Melbourne on 5 November. Fourteen nominees in my category. Some proper names among them.

If youve eaten with us, that plate was cooked by a kitchen that would be very chuffed. Thank you.
