A new book from Lonely Planet celebrates the ingenuity and passion of Australia's best food and wine regions.

"This book showcases why Australia is considered such a heavyweight on the global gourmet scene," said Lonely Planet.
"With an abundance of hip restaurants, food markets, craft-beer breweries, micro-distilleries, vineyards, coffee roasters, cheese makers and culinary specialists, you don't have to go any further than our own backyard to experience world-class produce."
Contributing author Chris Zeiher joked that this may have been the best job hed ever done for the publisher.
"We collectively ate and drank our way around Australia to come up with these amazing weekend itineraries in some of our countries prettiest spots," he said.
"Part of the joy of Gourmet Trails Australia and New Zealand is that we're able to introduce you to the minds behind these businesses, but also create these easy-to-follow itineraries to enable travellers to discover these places themselves and indulge in the same delicious experiences we had.
