Truffle Month

Overview

UPDATE Thursday, July 29: Following the latest lockdown, Rare Hare reopens today, July 29, while Doot Doot Doot and Flaggerdoot reopen their doors tomorrow, July 30. For more details on Victoria's current restrictions, see the Department of Health and Human Services website.

If you survived a total of five Melbourne lockdowns, chances are you could do with a big ol' treat yo'self moment right now. And the Mornington Peninsula's Jackalope is happy to provide. This month, the luxury hotel and all three of its hospitality venues are serving up a series of limited-edition truffle creations to celebrate Victoria's truffle season.

With this lineup, you might just find an excuse for more than one visit. Fine diner Doot Doot Doot is plating up the likes of burnt honey and truffle crumpets served with caviar and wattle cultured cream, and Moreton Bay Bugs with truffle mornay and truffled duck fat potatoes.

Casual restaurant Rare Hare is using truffle to elevate a dish of wild mushroom ragout with polenta, while the hotel's in-room dining menu has scored a luxe new addition in the lobster and truffle rolls, designed to match the new Jackalope x Everleigh Martini.

And at onsite bar Flaggerdoot, you can knock back specialty sips like a truffle negroni and the Penicillin crafted on truffle oil fat-washed bourbon. The specials will be available from each respective venue, throughout July.
