Truffle Season at Queen Victoria Market
Truffle honey, truffle butter, truffle salt, truffles toasties. If you like expensive black fungus, this thing is your jam.
Overview
The temperature is hovering somewhere around Antarctic levels in Melbourne, which means truffle season is officially here. To celebrate this year's harvest of expensive black fungus, Queen Victoria Market is hosting their annual truffle season party, and most traders are getting in on the action.
This is your chance to pick up truffle oil, truffle salt, truffle butter, truffle honey and truffled truffles – the Truffle Melbourne stall in A Shed is selling pure black gold by the gram.
Perhaps the pick of the bunch is the famous truffle toastie from all-Australian cheese shop, RIPE. It's back again this year for a limited-season run: golden brown sourdough stuffed with cheddar and mozzarella, topped with 12g of freshly shaved Australian truffle, then sprinkled with black truffle salt for good measure. If you get lost on the way to A Shed, just follow your nose.
Truffle season at Queen Vic generally runs until the last truffle, so you've got a little while to catch this one. Check out the full program here.
