A South Melbourne favourite is in a bit of a pickle and it's asking for your help. Coming off the back of some particularly tough times, the duo behind The Pickle & The Patty are rallying the troops, inviting pickle-loving Melburnians to throw a little extra support behind their upcoming Save the Pickle Pity Party.
Taking over the diner from 11.30am on Saturday, April 1, it's set to be an all-day affair, starring loads of specials and exclusive menu additions. You'll find $9 cheeseburgers, all tap brews priced at $10 a pop and something dubbed the Hangover Walking Taco — a serve of Mi Goreng-flavoured crisps elevated with chopped cheese-style beef, a peanut butter drizzle, blueberry jam, bacon and jalapeño.
If you fancy digging a little deeper, there'll be a ticketed feasting series running throughout the day. Nab a $58 ticket to enjoy a set menu filled with surprises and quirky twists, as well as a unique drink to kick things off.
While there, you'll be able to help out the venue's fundraising efforts by snapping up The Pickle & The Patty merch, plus signature products ranging from pickles to hot sauce. There'll even be a silent auction the team is labelling "quirky, weird and wonderful".
