National Cheese Day

Overview

We can't think of a much better way to celebrate 'National Cheese Day' (we'll take it as an excuse to eat more cheese), than tucking into a big serve of something decadently cheesy and classically Italian. If you're on board with that dairy-filled scenario, Fratelli Fresh is more than happy to comply.

To mark the annual cheese 'celebration' on Tuesday, June 4, the Italian eatery is rolling out a special menu addition at all of its seven NSW outposts. The guest of honour? A dreamy $15 cheese-wheel pasta. Busiate pasta is tossed together with lots of black pepper and cream inside a huge wheel of pecorino cheese, then served straight onto your plate in a hot, cheesy mountain.

At most stores, the dish is only making a one-day appearance, though Fratelli Fresh Crows Nest and Alexandria will score it as a permanent menu addition after June 4, with a standard serve clocking in at $25.

If you're downing cheese-wheel pasta as a group and looking for a liquid accompaniment, you might be tempted by Fratelli Fresh's new giant Aperol spritz concoction — the Super Spritz is a 1.5-litre share-friendly version of the drink, available for $39.

$15 cheese-wheel pasta is available all day on Tuesday, June 4, at all seven Fratelli Fresh restaurants in Alexandria, Bridge Street, Crows Nest, Darling Harbour, the Entertainment Quarter, Walsh Bay and Westfield Sydney.
