High Cheese

Overview

Ever found yourself eating your way through a high tea — spreading cream on scones, biting into a mini quiche and sipping a cocktail, probably — and realised that you could really use more cheese? Even if you haven't experienced that train of thought, you'll be pleased to know that La Valle Wine Bar and Bottle Shop has the answer. At its High Cheese events, the name is obviously self-explanatory.

On the menu: dairy, and plenty of it. You'll be tucking into a tiered cheese tower, in fact — and, while the menu changes each time, deep-fried and crumbed camembert wrapped in prosciutto, four-cheese croquettes and truffle-filled brie slices are just some of the dishes that could be on offer. In total, you'll munch on eight cheesy bites. You'll also know what to say if someone asks you to smile while they're snapping a photo.

For your $39 ticket, you'll also get two hours of bottomless wine — something to say cheers, not cheese, to.

High Cheese sessions are happening monthly, but the May, June and July events have already sold out (Brisbanites are a cheese-loving bunch, understandably). So, at the time of writing, you can make a cheese date for 11am, 12pm or 1pm on Sunday, August 8.
