On Friday night, I responded to a call out from Yelp Brisbane to come and shoot their Elite event at Locanda Osteria in Fortitude Valley on Saturday afternoon. The afternoon started with some wine, before the group joined the chef in the kitchen for a demonstration of how to make gnocchi.

A little while later, the gnocchi was shared around, along with other samples from Locanda’s fantastic menu. I’ll definitely be back for a full meal sometime soon.
