Slow by design
Our tours aren’t built to rush from highlight to highlight. They’re designed to create space to sit longer at the table, wander without an agenda, and let a place reveal itself properly.

Meet Emma
Emma Snodgrass grew up in the kitchen of Accoutrement, her mother Sue Jenkins' Sydney cooking school, where Stephanie Alexander, Maggie Beer and Neil Perry weren't names on a bookshelf. They were people who cooked and laughed alongside her. She absorbed all of it, not as a student, but as someone who simply couldn't help paying attention.

They were people who cooked and laughed alongside her. She absorbed all of it, not as a student, but as someone who simply couldn't help paying attention.
A year in London and time eating through European markets added another layer. She wasn't ticking off destinations. She was sitting at tables where she didn't speak the language but understood everything on the plate. Travel, she realised, wasn't separate from her love of food. It was the same thing.

Today she leads Accoutrement Tours: small-group, chef-led journeys where the producers, the winemakers and the stories behind the food matter as much as the destinations. Her guests, many of whom return tour after tour, tend to agree.
