Wagyu cows come to town
Saturday 20 March
To complement out meat masterclass in Melbourne as a part of the annual Food & Wine Festival, David Blackmore brought two of his prized beauties to town. A great opportunity for the 80+ participants to see a wagyu cow up close and personal and to hear from David, who is widely recognised as the best Wagyu producer outside of Japan.
The care that David uses at every level with these magnificent animals is testament to the result of the most magnificent 9 + marble score in the most delicate meat ever. The beef is tender and has a wonderful delicate beef flavour which has made his Wagyu famous. He is a hallmark producer and produces some of the greatest beef on this earth.
David spent eight weeks breaking in the Mum and her three month old calf, getting them ready for their trip to the city.
As you will see in this pic, which was taken outside Rockpool Bar & Grill, David was encouraging me to get closer but I was quite happy to stay at arm’s length!
