Last week, Frida’s Field, a 120-acre farm and restaurant located in Byron Bay, Australia, hosted a special five-course nose-to-tail long lunch for guests. The exclusive lunch intended to pay tribute to the farm's sustainably and ethically-reared Angus-Wagyu cattle.
The event featured a specialty menu curated by award-winning Chef Alastair Waddell. The menu was crafted to highlight all parts of Frida's Field cattle, honoring the animal's life while showcasing the food waste-reducing potential of nose-to-tail eating. Dishes included cured and smoked brisket and flank with sauerkraut, slow-cooked shin with veggies, and chocolate delice with bone marrow caramel.
"We’re hosting this lunch so people can come together and taste the difference; to encourage people to be more conscious of where their meat comes from and how it is grown; and get people excited about minimizing food waste and using the whole beast by experiencing how delicious less ‘premium’ cuts really are," said Frida’s Field founder Jeanie Wylie.
