Cheese Wheel Wednesdays

Overview

Cheese and pasta go together like few food combinations. As great as they both are individually, a particularly enticing alchemy of flavours occurs when they join forces. But simply sprinkling grated mozzarella or ground parmesan over your spaghetti is yesterday's news. Eating pasta served out of a cheese wheel is what it's all about now.

Salt Meats Cheese is hopping on everyone's current favourite Italian culinary bandwagon with its new weekly night dedicated to the dish. Drop into the Gasworks eatery on Wednesdays from 6pm, and you'll tuck into the cheesiest bowl of pasta you're ever likely to taste — for $25, plus $5 for toppings.

Flavour-wise, there's a few available, because even a meal like cheese wheel pasta can use a few additions. Just classic cheese is still on the menu, and so is the ol' fave that is truffle — plus newcomers such as carbonara, pesto genovese, gorgonzola and smoked mozzarella.
