Point Cook’s nationally acclaimed home address, ‘Alamanda’, by Villawood Properties, was a mecca for the hungry and thirsty on Saturday 17 April as it hosted its inaugural Food and Wine Expo.

Over 200 people attended the day which included cooking demonstrations and food and wine tastings including a selection of gourmet cheese, seafood, cakes, specialty breads and more.

In celebration of the opening of the new Alamanda Café and Providore, cooking demonstrations by café director and head chef, David Williams, offered café-goers an insight into the quality of cuisine now available at the new eatery.

Celebrating the official opening of the region’s highly anticipated café and restaurant, the expo event included a jazz band and kid’s activities as well as a visit from Villawood’s ‘Waddles’ the Platypus.

A Good Friday was had by all at Alamanda on 2 April when Villawood Properties and Henley Homes raised a staggering $635,000 for The Royal Children’s Hospital, Melbourne’s Good Friday Appeal with the sale of their charity home.

The bidding frenzy attracted over 500 people who enjoyed the excitement of the Good Friday auction as well as a fun day out with plenty of kid’s activities including a jumping castle, animal farm, face painting and more.

Winning bidders Andry Tanzil & Patesia Widjaja were excited to be a part of the day and scored a great deal at the no-reserve auction, all funds from which will go directly to The Royal Children’s Hospital.

A long standing fundraising project for the Good Friday Appeal, the 2010 charity home at Alamanda Point Cook was a great success. Villawood in partnership with Henley assisted to raise much needed funds for the Appeal and The Royal Children’s Hospital Melbourne.
