LET THE CHEFS CALL THE SHOTS

Hobart’s top chefs are obsessed with hyper-local, seasonal produce. So opt in if they offer a “feed me” dégustation that shows off whatever’s growing prolifically right that minute. A masterclass in each chef’s own flair and flourish, the multi-course menus at “fun diner” Fico (ficofico.net) and inner-city bistro Dier Makr (diermakr.com; left) are among the best around.
