Portside Cheese & Champagne Pop-Up 2019

Overview

It's the business with one of the best names we've come across — and it's been one of Brisbane's favourites for a few years now. On Sunday, March 31, it'll also be one of the reasons you should mosey on over to Portside Wharf for the precinct's annual Cheese & Champagne Pop-Up.

Yes, we're talking about The Cheese Pleaser, those purveyors of a certain dairy product. If you've bought any of its sharp or creamy wares before, you'll know that it well and truly lives up to its moniker.

At Portside, this cheese fiend store isn't just showcasing artisan cheeses, although it'll be doing plenty of that (don't worry). It's also teaming up with Gusto da Gianni and Moët & Chandon to showcase great bites and beverages, all set to the sounds of some rocking live music. The result is the kind of event that you'll want to bring a picnic blanket to, then settle in for an afternoon of drinks, tunes and $15 French cheese platters. That's right, this pop-up won't just be yum — it'll be fun, too. And, it's taking place on the wharf.

If you're in the area in the week leading up to the pop-up, too, Portside's retailers will be offering cheesy specials all week. Think cheese platters, cheese gnocchi, cheesy naans, smoked salmon and parmesan sushi, and haloumi breakfast burgers.
