La Croqueteria Pop-Up
These cheesy Spanish-style croquetas are hitting South Melbourne Market for a one-day pop-up, complete with free tastings.
Overview
It's been three years since Spanish-born civil engineer Santiago Seco-Pablos left his career to start a new food business dedicated to the classic bechamel croquetas of his homeland. La Croqueteria has been winning over local fans ever since — and now it's celebrating its third birthday with a one-day pop-up at South Melbourne Market's La Central Deli & Bodega.
If hot cheese-filled morsels take your fancy, swing past from 11am on Saturday, April 15 to sink your teeth into some free tastings. La Croqueteria's ever-growing range currently includes varieties like jamon serrano, goat cheese and jalapeno, bacalao (salted cod), and a calamari number that's been dipped in squid ink.
Once you've snacked on some samples and selected a few favourite flavours, you'll also find a selection of take-home packs (12-piece boxes and one-kilogram bags) available to buy and stock your freezer with. Deep-fry those croquetas until golden brown and you've got yourself some standout Spanish snacks.
Sounds like it's time to start planning a tapas night at your place.
