Each month, the MCC Longroom Wine and Food Society meet for lunch and showcase wines from a selected winery. To pair those wines, a chef is selected from the MCG culinary team to curate a signature menu and put themselves on the plate. It's an opportunity to showcase their own unique flavour, and personality.

In August, Luke Bowden paired a menu featured with a range of native ingredients, paired to wines from Ricky Ponting and Ponting Wines.
