NO NEED TO MISS OUT AT THE WELLINGTON FISHER & PAYKEL MASTERCLASS
August 16, 2011
For immediate release
An unforeseen change in the line-up for the Wellington Fisher & Paykel MasterClass now means Wellington foodies won’t have to choose between which of the stellar line-up of chefs they want to see, they can see them all.
The premier event at the Visa Wellington On a Plate festival and the ultimate day out for foodies, the Wellington Fisher & Paykel MasterClass will no longer be featuring Sydney chef Justin North in its line-up of stellar chefs. Sadly Justin has come down with pneumonia and can’t travel. The ex-pat Kiwi sends his best wishes for the event and says he was looking forward to returning to his homeland and cooking with the wonderful produce of Wellington and some of the best chefs in the Southern Hemisphere.
Organisers have now restructured the day-long MasterClass programme and instead of two classes running concurrently, each participant will now have the opportunity to see each individual chef in action.
Customers who have already purchased tickets and booked in for a Justin North session will be communicated with directly to make alternative programme arrangements to suit.
For more information on the event and information about tickets for the entire day and individual session see the website www.wellingtononaplate.com/masterclass
