Pairing Lamington correctly — a note on Sauvignon Blanc

Most people overlook how much the right drink changes Lamington. I ordered it with Sauvignon Blanc and the subtly sweet with native fruits elements of the dish sharpened considerably against the pairing. bush tucker wattle seed in particular became more prominent in a good way.

bush tucker movement incorporates indigenous ingredients like wattleseed and lemon myrtle into modern cooking. The a Melbourne brunch café is where you learn these pairings — they evolved together. If you've been having Lamington with the wrong drink, try it correctly once. It's a genuinely different experience. The restaurant deserves credit for getting this right.
