Spring racing season is almost here and now is the time to lock in your in-house or out of office Melbourne Cup function. It would not be a winning Melbourne Cup office celebration without a winning menu. Which is why we have created a menu range specifically for Melbourne Cup functions so you can spend more time enjoying yourself (and the champagne!), and less time worrying about the catering.
