The cheese bar’s new summer menu will feature a range of new additions including a soft creamy blue from Coolamon Cheese, burrata from Benalla Cheese, a traditional cheddar from Long Paddock Granite, a Kongwak Reserve raw milk cheese from Prom Country Cheese, and a new geotrichum rind cheese from Little Cedar Farmhouse, a small producer outside of Melbourne.
Their seasonal menu is complimented with local produce, wine from the Geelong and Bellarine Peninsula region and house-made accompaniments, this is an interactive experience that will bring you back time and time again.
Each plate is an opportunity to try an Australian artisan cheese (and the odd international traveller) uniquely paired with an accompaniment, ranging from pickled vegetables, fruit pastes to house-made treats. Cheesers pay by the plate, or opt in for All You Can Cheese (for an hour and a half). You can also add on a locally made mixed charcuterie plate, which serves 1-2ppl. To make it even better, if you’ve found a new favourite, all cheeses are available to take home.
