Cambinata Extravaganza
Annually, in spring time, Cambinata Yabbies celebrates the diversity and fabulous gourmet products of the Heartlands with the Cambinata Extravaganza. The Extravaganza features a silver service dinner – created using fabulous regional foods, including salt water trout, farmed abalone, lamb, beef, olives, and of course, yabbies. The meal is accompanied by fine regional wines, beer, soft drinks, and rain water. Ambient surrounds, live music and entertainment, indigenous and local art displays complete the atmosphere.
The evening begins with a Mini Expo where visitors meet regional producers and artists, and may sample their fares and make purchases. From here, guests move into the magnificently presented shearing shed, complete with hand-crafted candelabras, candlelit chandeliers, art, wildflowers and baby grand piano. The large Nenke family welcome guests and make them feel as if they are joining the family for dinner, treating them to a five course meal in a unique setting. Guests are welcome to camp the night on the property and enjoy bacon and farm fresh eggs and milk for breakfast the next morning.
Our guests' responses
The Extravaganza is consistently applauded by many, including Brendon Grylls, MLA for Merredin, who wrote, “Well done on what would have to be the best night ever for promoting all we are about in the Heartlands. You have begun what will be a must-attend event for many years to come.” Click here to see more of what our guests have to say about us.
