Brazilian Feijoada, Cambodian Skewers & Indian Samosas at Hurstbridge Wattle Festival

We head out to the Hurstbridge Wattle Festival, an annual event held on the first day of spring to celebrate the season’s arrival. It’s a family-friendly day packed with kids’ rides, live performances, arts and crafts stalls, and of course — plenty of food! 🌼

Our food journey starts with a taste of Brazil — a hearty bowl of feijoada, loaded with beans, pork, rice, and blood sausage. Next, we dig into some crowd-favorite Filipino chicken skewers, charred to perfection with crispy burnt bits, smoky BBQ flavor, and just the right touch of sweetness.

Of course, no Aussie festival is complete without a classic sausage sizzle — and we score a hearty egg and bacon roll for just $6, a true bargain. We even chat with a local who agrees with our rating! To finish off, we try a freshly made samosa, bursting with natural ingredients and bold flavor — one of the surprise highlights of the day.

The Hurstbridge Wattle Festival is more than just food — it’s a celebration of community, culture, and the start of spring. 🌼
