Historical information

A flyer that was from a series of flyers produced in partnership between Coles Supermarkets and celebrity chef Gabriel Gate that features recipes by Gate. Garry Smith collected the sheet and stored it inside another cook book. This was part of a larger collection of recopies and cook books that Gary used for inspiration during his career as a chef and as the owner of the Manse Restaurant.
The Manse Restaurant was opened around May 1988 by Alex and Kerry Koers in the former Congregational Church Manse building. In the early 1991 Gary Smith, who had been working as an apprentice at the restaurant, purchased the restaurant and ran it until its closure in 2020 due to COVID 19 pandemic and ill health.
