Brandy Creek Wine & View Café Overview

An age old Brazilian cooking custom comes to Drouin in Gippsland Lakes via Brandy Creek Wines and their cultural café with South American esteem. Aside from their feast events, even on one of their regular days –they’re open Thursday to Sunday -the atmosphere is festive whether you’re seated in the vineyard laden alfresco area or sprawling interior patterned in rich red hues and cool Spanish tile. Gypsey Eggs rolled in dukha with romesco sauce may start your day and later Gluten free calamares a la plancha featuring chilli & garlic may leave your mouth burning for a soothing Fried coffee custard. Match it with one of Brand Creek’s award winning wines and you’ll likely be one of the crowd coming back for more.

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 embers 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: lemon barramundi, chill/garlic calamari, basted chicken, succulent plumb pork, tender chipotle beef, honey spring lamb and spicy 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 desserts menu.

Our Famous Paella Feast

Indulge in Brandy Creek Wines & View Cafe's Famous Paella Feast and discover the excitement of traditional paella with five regional variations of this Spanish masterpiece:

• Paella de Marisco – traditional seafood including fish, prawns, mussels and squid
• Paella Manchega – traditional meat with chicken, pork (including crackling), lamb and beef
• Paella Blanca – scallops, leek and calamari
• Chicken and Chorizo Cazuela with saffron rice
• Paella Vegetarian

Nibble a selection of tapas with a complimentary glass of wine while watching the culinary theatre of Chef Courtney and her team creating wonderful paellas, savouring the heavenly aromas as they are brought to perfection.

When the time is right, the rice perfect, the flavours absorbed, you will be invited to indulge in as much paella as you like – try some of each or simply choose your favourite. But be sure to leave room for our Spanish-inspired desserts.
