Food and Dining

Nestled into the evergreen undulating hills, just to the north of Warragul and Drouin, is Brandy Creek Wines and View Café, West Gippsland’s premier wine, food and function destination.

Here in the relaxed atmosphere of the beautifully appointed café or on the well protected alfresco patio, you can enjoy Brandy Creek’s premium cool climate wines, including Tempranillo and Sparkling Pinot Gris.

About Churrasco

Churrasco originated in Southern Brazil, in the mid-1500s as the staple food style of the local cowboys or ‘gauchos’ when they slowly cooked salt-rubbed and marinated beef over emebers of their evening fires.

Our Churrascaria de Rodizio is particularly exciting. The meal begins with a shared tasting platter of Turkish bread, freshly made dips and small tapas.

When you’re ready, the kitchen sends roasted seasonal vegetables to your table and a special ‘satisfaction’ card – green on one side and red on the other.

From the fire, our ‘passadors’ (waiters) deliver ‘espetos’ (small swords) of your favourite, freshly cooked, marinated and basted meats and seafood (fish, calamari, chicken, pork, beef, lamb and chorizo sausage) to your table and carve them directly onto your plate. The food keeps coming while your card shows green. When you have had your fill you turn your card to the red side as a signal to the passadors that you are resting or have finished eating.

Desserts are available at standard prices from our delicious menu.

GRACEFIELD VENISON

Nestled within the hills of West Gippsland, Gracefield Venison Farm has extensive acres for the animals to roam freely and happily. Graham Edyvane, who owns and runs the Farm, has a hands-on involvement with day to day activity, making sure his livestock feel comfortable around him and ensuring they are at ease in natural surroundings for as much of the time as possible. Animals are encouraged to be predominantly grass fed with minimum supplementary feeding taking place in winter months.

We welcome everyone to come and walk with us and feed and talk to the animals - you will certainly see how contented they are! Call June and Graham to arrange a visit.

Gracefield Venison is lean and has a texture that is supple and tender and is very moist. It provides high levels of protein compared with beef, lamb, pork and chicken, and lower levels of fat and cholesterol. It will also provide a good source of vitamins B12 and B6, both of which are good for a healthy heart, and omega oils and the immunity boosting zinc and selenium, a powerful anti-oxidant.

So, the next time you are planning on meat for dinner, try the iron-rich, vitamin-packed alternative to beef. Gracefield Venison can add variety to your diet as well as good health to your life.

All our meat is cut and cryovaced and frozen locally and our gourmet pies are baked locally and cryovaced and frozen.
