At The Last Supper, we’re always up for something a little unexpected — so we recently hosted a lunch centred entirely around high-end tinned mussels, paired with thoughtfully selected drinks from around the world (and just down the road).
Here’s what was on the tasting table
🇦🇺 Little Tin Co Smoked Mussels (Port Lincoln, SA)
Paired with:Â NV Sittella Sparkling Chenin Blanc Brut
Smoky, rich, and proudly South Australian — perfectly balanced by bubbles and citrus brightness.
🇵🇹 Cabo de Peñas Mussels in Escabeche (Portugal)
Paired with:Â Thistledown Gorgeous Grenache Blanc
Zingy vinegar and spice met its match in this lemony, floral South Australian white.
🇪🇸 José Gourmet Fried Mussels in Marinade (Spain)
Paired with: 2024 Sittella Avant-Garde Albariño
Juicy, garlicky mussels found a perfect partner in this textured and fresh WA Albariño.
🇩🇰 Fangst Blåmusling No. 1 (Denmark)
Paired with:Â Sin Gin Aquavit
Dill and fennel flavours in both the mussels and spirit made for a bold, botanical finish to the feast.
The event was low-key, delicious, and full of surprises — proving once again that seafood in a tin can be anything but ordinary.

Hi everyone, I discovered this site after my cousin sent me screenshots from a session he had during one of those nights where nobody could sleep because the weather was still too hot outside. Usually he only sends terrible memes, so I was surprised he actually recommended something decent for once. Later that week I tried Abo Casino while sitting on the sofa with music quietly playing in the background. What caught my attention first was how comfortable the whole experience felt compared to some cluttered sites I’ve tried before. My luck at the start was honestly awful and I thought I’d wasted the evening completely, but then one lucky run suddenly changed everything around. By the end I’d recovered my…
Hey forum. I stumbled upon this name while going through older comparison threads focused on user experiences in Australia. One detailed post explained how the author evaluates platforms step by step. Halfway through his breakdown, he included 1u2win Casino as one of his recent choices. The calm tone of his message made it feel genuine. I decided to explore it myself and liked that I could understand everything without digging too deeply. The visit felt smooth and unforced.
These look absolutely delicious! I’m trying to find the specific brand of mussels you used in the second photo (the yellow tin?). I tried clicking the supplier link in the footer, but on my mobile, it kept redirecting me to random pages like https://levelupcasino.com/ instead of the shop? Might be a broken link or just my phone acting up. Would love to know the brand name so I can look for them at my local deli!
