Much more than just a cookbook!

 

Immerse yourself in deepest darkest Winter with this sumptuous tome celebrating the Winter Solstice and our coolest season.

​

Set your taste-buds on fire as you embark on a thrilling gastronomic rollercoaster ride that takes you from the pulsating dark heart of MONA's spectacular Dark Mofo Winter Feast, to the midnight banquets, seductive supper clubs and dark dinners unearthed in ‘The Dark Fringe’ created in honour of Tasmania’s iconic festival of darkness.

​

Descend into ‘Dante’s Inferno’ to resurrect your corpses with a cornucopia of cocktails created by some of Tasmania’s most celebrated distilleries and bars, before indulging in a banquet of sweet dark and delectable delights.

 

Learn how to make the perfect Martini and master the flames with Mona’s Heavy Metal Kitchen and immerse yourself in two dark tales.

​

Brimming with stunning moody images, this spectacular ode to Winter contains more than 180 delicious recipes - many especially recreated for this book – including recipes from Mona’s Heavy Metal Kitchen, inspired chef collaborations from Dark Mofo's Winter Feast, the Huon Valley + Willie Smith’s Mid-Winter Fest., plus a bounty of divine culinary creations from some of Australia’s most lauded chefs and food producers.
