We were invited to the Market Hotel to try their pop up truck menu. The month of September sees them hosting the satay truck which is really quite impressive. I thoroughly enjoyed my satay chicken burger and deliciously seasoned chips. The venue itself is also fun and quirky offering a wide range of craft beers. I actually can’t imagine why I’ve never been here before!
These legends are serving up made to order pizzas which are cooked in a wood fired oven for 90 seconds at 400 degrees to recreate a traditional Neapolitan-style crust with not so traditional toppings. These guys use traditional cold fermentation techniques for their dough, so you know the crust is right, and only the finest in-season ingredients. All of the wood used to heat their oven is foraged from fallen Gum and Box wood varieties in the wombat state forest, so not only does it taste amazing, it’s sustainable.

Our first time at the Market Hotel - I'm not sure how we've managed to miss it all these years living in the area! The interior is relaxed with a chilled vibe and the seating broken up in to different areas and little nooks. There's a pool table in the main bar area, and the music is quiet enough to hold a conversation.
This month they've launched a collaboration with Cluster Truck, where 6 different food trucks are taking over the kitchen, one a month for the next 6 months. Last night was the launch and we got to try foods from all 6 of the Foodtrucks, canape style. Everything was fresh and full of flavour with a good amount of variety to keep everyone happy.
The line up looks like this :
May - pearl of the quarter
June - Meat me here
July - Fugazi Pizza
Aug - the Pickle and the Patty
Sept - The Satay Truck
Oct - Salt and Pepa Food Truck
We're looking forward to coming back each month to try more of the dishes from each Food Truck kitchen
