Grampians Wimmera Mallee Special Dirty Linen Episode - Robin Wickens (Wickens at the Royal Mail) - a complete and engaging dining experience

At the southern end of the Grampians, chef Robin Wickens uses the Royal Mail’s market garden to supply produce for his pub bistro and fine dining restaurant Wickens, which is set in bushland in a glassed pavilion. We meet up with Robin for a garden tour, before heading back to the restaurant for a 10-course degustation with matched wines. Dinner is creative, exciting and fun, one of regional Australia’s most complete and engaging dining experiences. This episode is part of a special Dirty Linen series about the Grampians, Wimmera and Mallee regions in western Victoria. We drove the roads, saw the sights, said hello to the roos and emus, met the people, ate the food, drank the wine and generally soaked up the delights. Listen to more episodes about the Grampians Wimmera Mallee. We hope you’ll plan a trip to the region and listen to stories of this fun, fascinating part of the world as you travel. The series is supported by Visit Victoria. ⁠https://royalmail.com.au/dining/wickens/⁠ ⁠https://www.visitvictoria.com/regions/grampians⁠ ⁠https://grampiansgrapeescape.com.au/⁠ ⁠https://www.visitgrampians.com.au/⁠ ⁠https://visitwimmeramallee.com.au/⁠ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER FOR EXCLUSIVE ARTICLES, NEWS, GIVEAWAYS AND BEHIND THE SCENES ⁠https://deepintheweeds.us6.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=d33e307cf7100cf947e2e6973&id=d17d8213f5⁠ Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast⁠ Follow Dani Valent ⁠https://www.instagram.com/danivalent⁠ Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) ⁠https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/⁠ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) ⁠https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/⁠ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS ⁠https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork⁠ Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.
