NZ Cheese Lovers' Dinner Series

Usually the treat to kick off or finish a meal, cheese will take centre stage as the starter, entree, main and dessert at this unmissable dinner series.

The NZ Cheese Lovers' Dinner Series will see five restaurants across the country collaborate with some of New Zealand's best cheesemakers to create a special cheese degustation. Round up your cheese loving buddies and saddle up for four courses of the good stuff. Each course will be matched to Martinborough vineyard wine and an Emerson's Brewery beer.

The menu will include winners from the 2018 NZ Champions of Cheese Awards, including Zany Zeus Smoked Brinza with potato gnocchi, Cwmglyn Farmhouse mornay with scallops, The Drunken Nanny with braised shank and lamb fillet, and Kingsmeade Robiolino with roasted figs, almonds and honey.

If you grate cheese on everything from salad to soup, then this is the event for you. The Wellington event will be held at Shed 5 on Wednesday 30 May. Book via the Shed 5 website. Cheese dreams guaranteed.
