For Marly Bardia, making food from scratch was always the norm growing up—from her mum’s homemade bread to their sweet family jams. And as a self-professed halloumi lover, she wasn’t about to let cheese be the exception.
Not only did Marly master the art of making this beloved dairy product from scratch (with plenty of experimenting and internet scrolling), she also realised just how little people knew about it. Her answer? Omnom Cheese, a space offering fun and casual cheesemaking classes and DIY kits for total beginners.
Step inside this lush, fairy-lit space in Rosebery and learn how to make all your favourite cheeses—burrata, feta, ricotta, you name it!—paired with generous amounts of wine to ignite your creative flow.
Whether you’re eager to dive into the science behind this drool-worthy kitchen staple or just searching for fun things to do this weekend in Sydney, Omnom Cheese welcomes you to try this deliciously rewarding craft.
The name Omnom Cheese is…
“An onomatopoeia for the sound you make when you eat something that is really delicious. Your homemade cheese should be so good that you make this sound!”
Three things you should know about cheesemaking are…
“It’s easy to do in your home kitchen, you can make cheese at home using store-bought milk and it’s simply delicious.”
Making your own cheese can help you save money…
“And impress your mates!”
Come to one of my classes and you will…
“Learn how to make cheeses that are easy to replicate in your home kitchen using store-bought milk, and that don’t require a lot of fancy equipment and hands-on time. Such cheeses are burrata, bocconcini, halloumi, feta and ricotta, all of which are paired with bottomless wine.”
If I had to pick one cheese it would be…
“Halloumi. I fell in love with this delicious, squeaky cheese, and it inspired me to set out on a quest to learn how to make it myself.”
