The best aspect about attending a conference on gastronomy is that you meet lots of people who like food (and wine). The Symposium Australian of Gastronomy celebrated its 25th anniversary with a 4-day event in Launceston, Northern Tasmania. Attracting primarily hospitality tutors and academics from around Australia, there was also a small contingent from New Zealand also making presentations.

Aboriginal peoples are thought to have crossed from the mainland, when the Bassian Plain land bridge existed, sometime during the previous 40,000 years. Geologist believe that the Bassian Plain disappeared about 12,000 years ago forming the waterway known today as Bass Strait.
