Golden Plains Music Festival - Hare Krishna Fare
I just love a good music bash, and the inagural labour day weekend, outdoor, camping Golden Plains Festival at Meredith Supernatural Amphitheatre didn’t disappoint. Now whilst I won’t divulge tales of drunkeness and debauchery (this is after all a food blog), I will ponder the sustenance consumed care of our fine friends, the Hare Krishnas.
I chose the banquet platter to ensure I got a taste of everything on offer (for blog research purposes of course ;-)). Included was a thick tasty potato and chickpea tomato-based curry, boiled basmati rice, huge cauliflower pakoras with a sourish tamarind sauce, kofta balls with tomato sauce and halava (semolina pudding). Not only did it taste wonderful, but it gave me the sustenance to dance well into the wee hours of the morn.

Bless those Hare Krishnas - they can always be relied upon for delicious and cheap stall food! I will never be tempted by a hot-dog-and-chips stand as long as they’re around.

Actually most of the food at Golden Plains was really good. There was only one bad-arse greasepit type stall, the rest were doing wonderful things such as filled rotis, noodle soups (laksa / tom yum), woodfired pizzas, burritos etc. I was well impressed!
