Eddie Basich
Currently Eddie is the Head Chef of the Victorian Wine Room Restaurant at the Hotel Shamrock in Bendigo. He has taken his style of cuisine from London to the Yarra Valley. This award-winning chef has a passion to produce significant dishes using the best and finest produce around the regions of Victoria so it’s no wonder he is known as ‘The Regional Produce Chef’.
Eddie’s credentials include ‘Best Winery Restaurant in the Yarra Valley’ at Tokar Estate 2007 and a Michelin Star at Rhodes in the square with Garry Rhode in London.
Furthermore, he holds cooking classes and demonstrations at events such as the Royal Melbourne Show and the Bendigo Farmers Market as well as being an ambassador for many regional products and produce. Eddie appeared on Nine Network’s national TV show “Fresh with Jason Roberts” in 2003 and on monthly radio programs on 3AK in Melbourne with Sandy Kay and Easy mix 98.3FM in Bendigo.
As he always says, “Life is too short so enjoy great food and wine!”
