The Portside Cheese and Champagne Pop-up has found a special place in our hearts for a darn good reason – it’s pretty much a whole weekend dedicated to two of our favourite French things. This year the heroes at Portside have teamed up with The Cheese Pleaser, Gusto da Gianni and Moët & Chandon to create a curated selection of all things creamy, bitey and bubbly. Spread across two days, the Cheese and Champagne Pop-up incorporates food and drink with live entertainment to create a chilled, family-friendly weekend vibe.
So what can you expect to taste at the Portside Cheese and Champagne Pop-up? We can let you know that cheese expert (dream job, to be honest) Sharyn de Kort from The Cheese Pleaser has expertly curated a tasting platter that will have your mouth watering. The selection incorporates Le Dauphin, Comte and Blue D’Auvergne served with The Cheese Pleaser’s signature apple and walnut chutney and biscuits – all for the mind-bogglingly low sum of $15. You can wash your tasty morsels down with a glass (or whole bottle if you’re feeling fancy) of Moët & Chandon Champagne or a selection of fine wines available. If you’ve still got room for more delicious food, Portside’s many fabulous restaurants will be trading all weekend to fill the gaps.
