24.01.2022 Countdown is on till we’re cooking for you all again and filling your bellies with delicious nourishing plant based food! What dish of ours are you hanging out to have again?

24.01.2022 ***Casual FOH event staff wanted*** We’re getting busier and we need to expand our team! We mostly cater for weddings but also other types of events. These events are always vegan but vary lots in terms of service style, size and location. Many of them are at our venue in Lithgow (Secret Creek) so being based close to there would be ideal. We also travel across the Blue Mountains, to Sydney and beyond. You should be;... - reliable and honest with a good work ethic - a confident communicator - experienced in hospitality and events - versatile and adaptable, as the events we run can vary a lot in style and service - passionate about veganism and plant based food - looking for a few extra flexible shifts around current commitments - willing to work at least one weekend day every week - willing to work double shifts when required - willing to travel anywhere in NSW - based close to, or be willing to travel regularly to our venue in Lithgow Please get in touch via email [email protected] and introduce yourself. Have a look at our other account @veganweddingsandevents for more info about what we do as well.

24.01.2022 Lovely gluten free chocolate mud cake filled with raspberry jam and vanilla buttercream and topped with fresh figs for Tanyas birthday today. I LOVE these colours. #vegan

23.01.2022 Loving the sexy juicy spring vibes in this blood orange and cardamom cake from a sweet birthday party we hosted last week While you’re drooling, we’d also like to let you know that we are open again THIS weekend for a set seasonal menu, brunch/lunch service both days. The 17th and 18th of October. This will be the last chance to visit for the rest of the month because we’ll be hosting a few special events in the coming weeks. Bookings are essential, get in touch if you’d like to visit!

18.01.2022 One of my fave creative projects for a wedding so far! I built this crescent shaped ceremony arbour using only natural material from inside the sanctuary. No floral foam. Carefully stacked stones and moss collected from the site, a combination of dried and fresh native blooms as well as foliage from the sanctuary. Finished with a few beautiful white accent flowers from @floral.by.nature. (Swipe to get a better idea of the size!) When I do something like this, the biggest challenge is making sure the emus and wallabies dont eat it before the ceremony starts!

18.01.2022 Ok friends, this is a safe and loving space (and I WILL be moderating the comments if it doesnt stay this way )... ***QUESTION*** If youre NOT quite vegan yet, but you think MAYBE youd like to be... whats holding you back? No judgement, just kindness, compassion and suggestions! We might have some recipe or ingredient suggestions if its a specific food you cant let go of, OR other advice. Lets hear it! Tag your vegan-curious friends. #whyimnotvegan

17.01.2022 Thank you everyone who came in to visit on our first day back today! We are still finding our feet and our brains after iso, so thank you for your friendly faces and kindness. Our sweet little retail space is coming together. We have a lovely collection of local and handmade products by some beautiful makers and some other eco friendly products that weve sourced. We are still adding to this range (with more things due to arrive soon!) but let us know in the comments which vegan friendly brands you love and well see what we can do about adding them @paudhahealing @creekcandleco @botanicalali @laughingbirdprint @blue_mountain_bombs @ever.eco

17.01.2022 Hello friends! I’m currently taking bookings for PRIVATE PARTIES in your home or Air BnB venue in The Blue Mountains, Hartley and Lithgow areas. I know it seems like a long way off but 2020 has just flown by and it will be Christmas before you know it! Wedding postponements have opened up lots of dates at the end of this year. So get in touch if you’d like to plan something special for an occasion that you want to celebrate in a unique and personalised way. Email me and the team - [email protected] to talk through the options for your work Christmas party, a birthday or luxurious dinner just because you like to be indulgent. Photo at the incredible @the_black_barn. Just one of the many stunning venues in our beautiful Blue Mountains.

17.01.2022 Trio Plant-based is the only black owned vegan restaurant in Minnesota. The hospitality industry has been seriously impacted worldwide by Covid and now Trio is supporting their local community in the fight against injustice. Part of creating the world we want to live in involves supporting businesses that are working for that future as well. You can help them here; https://www.trioplantbased.com/get-involved Ive donated personally but well also be sending some of our prof...its from this weekends trade to them from Secret Creek. -Tenille x None of us are free until we are all free.

16.01.2022 This land we call Lithgow is Wiradjuri land. This land was never ceded. I am absolutely disgusted to read in the Lithgow Mercury about a local protest that was cancelled because of vile abuse that the organiser received. This is how we know that there is still so much work to be done to dismantle racism and oppression of all kinds. Read in her own words about the history of this day, what it means to First Nations people and why today is a day of mourning. We will not celebr...ate genocide today, or any day. ***Note: the screenshots of the comments she received are included and they are quite upsetting. https://www.lithgowmercury.com.au//vile-abuse-and-threat/

15.01.2022 Here it is folks. KFC. Kentucky Fried Cauliflower. This dish has been on the menu at Secret Creek since we changed the menu over to completely vegan in 2015. Its actually super easy and the breading spice mix is very versatile. Thats why Ive been fairly generous with the amounts here for one head of cauliflower. Make sure you save the extra spiced flour and use it to crumb whatever else you like in crunchy spicy deliciousness. Youll see that this recipe uses plain flour.... At the restaurant we actually use gluten free plain flour blend to make it more allergy friendly, so it definitely works with either. Plain flour will give you a more dense crumb, and will be closer to actual KFC in texture but if you want to replicate ours exactly, use gluten free! Ingredients: BOWL ONE 1 cup plain flour 1 heaped tablespoon vegan chicken stock powder 1 heaped tablespoon smoked paprika 1 heaped tablespoon sweet paprika 2 heaped teaspoons onion powder 2 heaped teaspoons garlic powder 2 heaped teaspoons dried sage 1 heaped teaspoon ground white pepper 1 heaped teaspoon dried marjoram 1 heaped teaspoon dried thyme 1 heaped teaspoon dried oregano 1 heaped teaspoon mild mustard powder 1 heaped teaspoon celery salt Pinch of salt flakes BOWL TWO 1 cup of plain flour 1.5 cups of water Oil for frying. I recommend rice bran oil. METHOD Preheat your oven to 180 degrees celsius Break a medium sized head of cauliflower into chunks that are a little larger than bite sized. You might need to start off with a knife, but mostly breaking them with your hands will have a better effect. Lightly spray a baking tray with oil, place your chunks on it and sprinkle with a good pinch of salt. Spray the top of them too. Roast in the oven until just golden brown on the edges, but a little firmness remains While the cauliflower is cooling, slowly whisk the water into the flour in BOWL TWO and combine all ingredients in BOWL ONE. Preheat your oil for frying. If you are using a deep fryer, set the temperature to 180-190 degrees celsius. If you are using a pot of oil on the stove, heat the oil to the same temp, ideally using a digital thermometer. Crumb each piece of cauliflower by placing into the wet mix, and then into the dry mix. Fry only a few pieces at a time, being careful that your oil doesnt drop below 150 degrees celsius and stays as close as possible to 180. Fry until brown and crispy. It should only take a couple of minutes. Serve with your fave creamy mayo/aioli type sauce or mash and gravy. If you need a recipe, my chipotle aioli goes great with it. NOTE: Deep frying alternatives are air frying or oven baking. If you would like to do either of these two methods, I recommend, for maximum crunch and colour, that you use the following wet mix instead, whisking the ingredients very well: 1 cup plain flour 1/2 cup light flavoured vegetable oil 1/2 cup soy or other preferred plant milk 1/2 cup water

It will be a family style service with 5 shared courses using seasonal produce. $40 per head which includes tea or coffee.

We love you all and cant wait to catch up. - Tenille and the SC team x

12.01.2022 Awesome tips for planning your ethical wedding or other special event. Share with anyone who is planning their wedding! xx

11.01.2022 Hello friends! Thank you all so much for the support over the past month. We loved seeing you all again and feel so grateful for all of you. Unfortunately weve realised that it is still not sustainable for us in the cafe to remain open at this stage. Weve decided to close again until we are able to safely run events. Even if we were allowed to (which we arent) we just dont feel comfortable trying to fill our venue to capacity at the moment, which is what we essentially ...need to do to be profitable. The sanctuary will remain open for booked tours only and they can be booked in advance via their website www.secretcreeksanctuary.com. Please remember that this business is run separately so youll need to contact them for any enquiries about tours. Even with the huge amount of support weve received, a la carte cafe service just doesnt work for us right now. Thank you so much for your understanding. This is an unprecedented situation and weve been doing our best to navigate it in a way that ensures the longevity of our business. We dont want to operate from a place of emergency and scarcity and make decisions that only serve the short term. As a business, are here for the long haul and we have a lot of huge things in the works for the future. The future of vegan food needs us to look at the big picture and thats what we are doing when making this decision. Saying that... a couple of ways to access us and our food will remain available; 1. Private degustation parties at your house. Get in touch if this is something you like the sound of. Minimum of 15 people. We can also travel within 2 hours for these. Uh...hello Sydney folks!? 2. Weddings and other events. We have super limited availability for any more events in 2020 (basically booked solid from September, which is amazing!), but are taking bookings for 2021 and into the future. Closing the cafe for now will mean that we are also more available for our current clients, which is something we are super grateful for. 3. Online content. Were not going anywhere. Were just going back into hibernation for the moment. Well share recipes and other content when we can. We really do love you all lots and thank you for supporting us through this. Please remember to be kind and compassionate to those people working in hospitality that have to push through during this time. Restaurant life is really hard and stressful at the best of times, and these are difficult times. Our last day, for a little while, will be Sunday the 19th July. Weve attempted to contact anyone that had a booking in the coming few weeks, get in touch if we missed you. See you all soon!

01.01.2022 Ive been catching up with past clients to see if they have any advice to pass on to people who are planning their weddings at the moment! In this clip, Brenda and Darrin talk about hiring professionals instead of doing things themselves and also about the benefits of having an MC! Although its not considered to be one of the essential vendors, I also think having an MC is a really good idea regardless of the size of your group. Brenda and Darrin thought having Evelyn from Blue Mountains Celebrant - Weddings stay after the ceremony to fulfil this role was really important to how their event ran. See the full interview with Brenda and Darrin and other couples on our YouTube channel!
