Say HELLO 👋 to the TRUFFLE TRUCK!

A delicious collaboration between Truffle Melbourne and Truffle Paddock’s Nigel Wood and Chef Matt Woodhouse of Black Slate Kitchen to share the goodness of truffles all through spring and summer!

After lockdown you’ll be able to find our roving truffle temple around town and also available to book for private functions and event catering. From casual toasties at the market to five-course menus for up to 200 guests, we say bring it on!

We’re counting down the days until we can share the truffle love with you all. In the meantime, check out our website for menus and booking info: www.truffletruck.com.au

Pine mushrooms are just absolutely stunning at the moment. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Found under pine trees every autumn. Most foragers keep their picking spots a close secret but if you don’t fancy picking yourself, most markets, especially in melbourne will stock them when in season. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our executive chef has created some delicious dishes this year with these mushrooms.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Fantastic to see .are.comma in the today.

My featured dish is chargrilled broccolini, whipped ricotta, salmon roe, pine nuts and lemon

Simple in concept but oh so beautifully balanced.

If you haven’t been already, get yourselves down to Moorabbin.

Thanks for the feature
