It is the platter to put down when the evening is about the company rather than the catering.

  • Gorgonzola
  • Provolone
  • Mature white cheddar
  • Camembert

The South African bit

  • Sliced beef biltong
  • Beef droewors sticks

The sweet and the sharp

  • Grapes
  • Caramelised figs
  • Balsamic red onion jam
  • Calamata olives

The rest

  • Assorted savoury biscuits and crackers
  • Caprese kebabsMozzarella balls, cherry tomatoes and basil pesto

When to order the Cheese and Nibbles

The platter people order when they want something good on the table without making an occasion of it.

Getting the best out of it

Take it out of the fridge about 30 minutes before you serve it. Gorgonzola and camembert taste like a different thing at room temperature than they do fridge cold, and it is worth the wait.

Add the Italiano alongside it if you want cured meats on the table as well, or a Simply Sweet to carry the evening past dessert.

Questions about the Cheese and Nibbles

Is there pork on this platter?

No. The biltong and the droewors are both beef, and there are no cured pork meats on this platter at all. If you want a spread without pork, this is the one to order rather than the Italiano, which contains parma ham, mortadella, salami and streaky bacon.

Is it vegetarian friendly?

Not on its own, since the biltong and droewors are beef. Everything else on the platter is vegetarian, so a meat free guest has plenty to work with. For a fully meat free spread, order the Vegetarian Charcuterie Box.

How many people does it feed?

Eight. Every Magies Vol platter is built for 8 people and there is no smaller or larger version, so you always know exactly what you are getting. For 16 people order two, and for 24 guests or more a grazing table set up on site usually works out better.

Can I get it delivered today?

Yes, if you order before 09:00. Anything ordered before 09:00 is delivered the same day across Fourways, Bryanston, Sandton and Rosebank. Orders placed after 09:00 are delivered the next day, because every platter is packed fresh on the morning it goes out.

How long does it keep?

It arrives ready to serve and is at its best on the day. Keep it refrigerated and covered until you need it, then bring it out about 20 to 30 minutes before your guests arrive. Anything left over should go straight back into the fridge and be eaten the next day.

Do you deliver to my area?

We deliver across Fourways, Bryanston, Sandton and Rosebank and the surrounding suburbs, Monday to Friday between 08:00 and 17:00. Collection from our kitchen can also be arranged. If you are just outside those areas, message us on 066 408 8267 and we will let you know.
