Maitland Taste Festival has announced My Kitchen Rules champions Matt Gawthrop and Luke Stewart will be hosting the Kitchen Stage at the popular two-day festival.
The local duo surprised everyone (and themselves) when they took out the crown of My Kitchen Rules Champions in 2019.
Their love of Modern Australian and Italian cuisines proved to be a perfect match for the boys who met as teenagers in a representative cricket team.
Off the back of winning My Kitchen Rules, Matt and Luke have been refining their dishes and creating new ones at pop up restaurants in the Newcastle and Hunter region.
As well as hosting the Kitchen Stage, the pair will also be conducting some demonstrations.
Watch the boys create kangaroo tartare with lemon myrtle and Nasturtium at The Kitchen Stage on both Saturday and Sunday from 10am.
The festival will also feature celebrity chef Adam Liaw who will be sharing tips and tricks on some of his signature dishes.
