A one-night celebration of Franklin’s finest food and talent
Step into an evening where local flavour takes centre stage.
Chef’s Table brings together some of Franklin’s most loved chefs, producers, and venues for a curated four-course dining experience — each dish telling a story of the land, the people, and the passion behind it.
