Culinary decadence at its finest will be celebrated in style at Prahran Market’s Truffle & Charcuterie Celebration. For one day only truffle and charcuterie will take centre stage, mesmerising gourmet food lovers with an upmarket array of tastes, aromas and tasty delights.

Prahran Market traders, alongside leading truffle supplier Friend & Burell, will work together to showcase both luxury ingredients with a series of activations, entertainment and pop-up stalls throughout the Market.

The Market’s ‘Mushroom Man’ Damian Pike is the sole trader for fresh black winter truffle for the season, however Prahran Market traders will offer a decadent selection of gourmet truffle and charcuterie morsels for shoppers to sink their teeth into on the day, including Maker & Monger’s Truffle Brioche toasties and Truffle mac ’n’ cheese, Sweet Greek’s Risoni in cream cheese sauce with truffle, and Wilson & Market’s mouthwatering Truffle Poached Eggs with reggiano and soft polenta.
