Carpark Electric Vehicle Charging PointAt their truffle farm in Bungendore, just outside Canberra, guests can join a truly unique experience: foraging for black truffles alongside Largo, their enthusiastic Border Collie and expert truffle hunter.
Your morning begins with a warm welcome and the crisp country air. Rug up in outdoor gear and follow Largo as he sniffs out prized black truffles beneath the winter soil. Don’t forget to reward him with his favourite game of fetch!
After the hunt, gather for a live cooking demonstration by Chef Christophe as he prepares egg brouillard — a luxurious French-style soft scramble infused with freshly unearthed truffle. Served on a warm baguette with fresh salad, and your choice of tea or coffee, this rustic long-table brunch is a feast to remember.
As you dine, Chef Christophe shares stories, cooking tips, and insights into the world of truffle farming. Before you leave, browse a selection of fresh truffles and handcrafted products like truffle butter and truffle salt to take home.
The experience concludes after two hours — but the memories linger.
