What happens when two meat-loving mates from two much-loved Melbourne kitchens team up for a one-off takeaway pop-up? You'll find out exactly this Saturday, October 16 and Sunday, October 17, when Dale Kemp (Head Chef of Terror Twilight) and Tom Johnson (Executive Chef of Meatmaiden) combine their talents to host a special protein-fuelled kitchen takeover.
Descending on Collingwood's Terror Twilight from 10am each day, the chefs will be whipping up a limited-edition takeaway menu celebrating premium pasture-fed meat from Gippsland's O'Connor Beef.
Expect dishes like a hot-smoked brisket sandwich finished with coffee and bourbon barbecue sauce ($18), and another with fried dry-aged rib-eye teamed with salsa verde and smoked buffalo mozzarella ($20). There'll be crispy lobster mac and cheese croquettes ($8), and a vegetarian-friendly eggplant schnitty situation starring smoked tomato and provolone ($16).
A $15 mint julep will also be on offer, which — thanks to the newly eased mask-and-alcohol restrictions — you can now enjoy while you're out and about.
