Overview

On Sunday, October 28, Prahran Market will host its fifth annual Say Cheese Festival. For the uninitiated (or those who haven't previously attended and devoured all the dairy they can), it's essentially an entire day of eating cheese — and buying even more to eat later.

From 10am–4pm, there'll be free cheese tastings, cheesy dish demonstrations and stalls from cheese providores. Or, you can meet cheesemakers, wander along a market trail or get cosy at a fondue bar. If you're not too full from all of that, traders will also be offering food to take home or eat there, including Maker & Monger and Wilson & Market. Yes, there will be many, many cheese plates.

Plus, chefs will also take over the kitchen throughout the day to demonstrate cooking techniques — and take part in Melbourne's first Grilled Cheese Invitational to determine who cooks up the best combo of grilled cheese on bread. If you'd like to expand your palate, Say Cheese is hosting guided cheese pairings as well, so you'll be downing the gouda stuff with tea, saké, beer or Prosecco in no time.
