As part of Tasmania's Seniors Month, Eat Well Tasmania invites you to enjoy a delicious day out at the iconic Great Lake Hotel - celebrating healthy ageing, friendship and the incredible produce that makes Tasmania so special.

Join us for a day of warm hospitality, delicious Tasmanian food and local stories. The Great Lake Hotel may be one of Tasmania's coldest destinations, it offers one of the warmest welcomes.

Good food has a remarkable way of bringing people together. It starts conversations, strengthens connections and creates lasting memories, reminding us that some of life's richest moments are found in something as simple as sharing a meal.

You'll be welcomed with a warming cup of Tasmanian spiced apple juice, from the new Southern Bliss apples grown by R&R Smith, before settling in to enjoy a hearty lunch showcasing fresh Tasmanian ingredients and comforting seasonal flavours, created by Tasmanian chefs Kirsten Bacon and Ellie Bacon.

Throughout the afternoon you'll have the opportunity to meet Kirsten and Ellie, hear ideas on making nutritious meals simple and affordable to practical kitchen tips, cooking shortcuts, ingredient swaps and ways to get more flavour and goodness onto the plate.

Great Lake Hotel owner James will also share what makes this unique highland pub such a treasured destination, along with stories of the people, landscape and exciting future of one of Tasmania's most iconic venues.

Whether you're travelling from nearby or making a special day trip with friends or family, this is an opportunity to experience the warmth of country hospitality, enjoy exceptional Tasmanian food and celebrate ageing surrounded by great people in one of Tasmania's most memorable locations.
