Platters and Finger Food

Our cheese platters showcase a selection of cheeses from Goldfields handmade specialty cheeses and The Warrnambool Cheese Co. and are enhanced by the outstanding flavours of accompaniments handmade by Springmount Fine Foods.

Single Cheese Platter — $22

Our smaller platter includes three pieces of local cheese; a Brie, Camembert or ashed, one cheddar, and a choice of either a mild or strong blue vein, or a maple and toffee cheddar. This is accompanied by Springmount’s quince, balsamic apple and spiced pear pastes and the unique black garlic. The platter is further enhanced by a selection of olives, seasonal or dried fruits, walnuts and assorted crackers.

Cheese Platter to Share — $34.50

Our larger platter, to share, includes five pieces of local cheese; a Brie, Camembert or ashed, a semi-hard cheese such as Miner's Delight, a Heritage Cheddar and a Vintage Cheddar. Lovers of blue vein cheese can choose between a mild or a strong blue vein. If preferred, a maple toffee cheddar can replace the blue. The cheeses are accompanied by Springmount’s quince paste, apple lime and black pepper paste, balsamic apple paste, spiced pear paste and beetroot relish. To further titillate the palate the platter includes the unique black garlic, olives, seasonal or dried fruits and walnuts with assorted crackers.

The Ploughman's Platter — $18

A twist on the traditional Ploughman's lunch, harping back to colonial times and the Britain of the eighteenth century. A platter to satisfy the gnawing appetite of a hard-working man. A knot roll with butter, a slab of mature cheese and a lump of Vintage Cheddar. The cheeses are accompanied by mildly spiced pickled onions, gherkins and an earthy beetroot relish. In addition to this, add the luxurious tang of Branston pickle and tomato chutney for the taste of a bygone age.
