23.01.2022 You’d be forgiven for thinking @babajiskitchen and @chieftains_fine_foods have joined forces! However the kind folk at our favourite South Indian restaurant have thrown us a lifeline in the form of a coolroom to house all the Father’s Day boxes being picked up at our Tecoma store today! So say hi to Riley who’s manning the coolroom and he’ll hand over your preordered Father’s Day box

23.01.2022 We love it when cool cars come to visit, makes for the perfect photo op Thanks for visiting d’Luxe Classic Car Tours #carsofchieftains #vintagecar #carsofmelbourne #melbourne #melbourneweekend #dandenongranges #tecoma #deli

23.01.2022 2 of these boxes of deliciousness just sitting here in the deli display waiting for you to take one home...or to the park

22.01.2022 HALF PRICE BAGUETTES!!! We weirdly have some of these delicious morsels still available and quite frankly we don’t want to take them home. So if you can get here before 3 you can grab one half price take away...

22.01.2022 Introducing our premium grazing box, perfect for when you really wanna treat yo’self This box of incredibleness contains 4 gourmet cheese (a beautiful mix of semi hard, soft, house-smoked, and blue), 4 free range smallgoods, 2 dips, a free range terrine, a pate, fruit paste, a variety of pickled and marinated goods and a scattering of dried apricots and figs. Each box come with a free pack of wafer crackers $100 each

22.01.2022 The good news is we will remain open in the stage 4 lockdown. And we will remain open while it’s still viable... We are only introducing one more change, we are now closing in Tecoma on Tuesday’s so the hours will match at both stores... We’ve had a number of suppliers reduce their delivery days and times meaning Tuesday’s are a bit old mother Hubbard until stock arrives. Stay safe wonderful customers, we’re glad we get to continue to see your masked faces

21.01.2022 This incredible team just finished an epic day of putting together Father’s Day boxes. Anyone that popped into store today knows this was HUGE. Now we have to go home and map out our delivery route for the next 2 days! Please be patient as this probably won’t be announced until a bit later tonight. Unfortunately we cannot get back to all the messages asking what time your delivery will be, stay tuned for updates on our Facebook pages

19.01.2022 Ok, after some serious technical difficulties with our online store - every product magically vanished with no way to retrieve them, we are back in action! It required some deep breathing and many hours to recreate the products instore and we’re minus a few products, but grazing boxes are available online again *phew* We now also offer exclusively vegetarian and vegan boxes, also available online https://www.chieftainsco.com.au/grazing-boxes

17.01.2022 We get it, it seems there is nothing left we are allowed to do together, we crave outings and togetherness. We ourselves miss shopping together, it’s the little things! We have many families and couples still coming in to our stores to shop together. We get there are exceptions... However in the interest of safety for our staff by reducing numbers through the door, and to allow more individual shoppers in store at one time - please follow the DHHS restrictions and only shop in store solo unless absolutely necessary (the exceptions are outlined below)... Thank you for understanding Ps we can’t wait to have everyone of your beautiful faces in store again, we miss the hustle and bustle of dine in

17.01.2022 Miss out on buying your lover something special for Valentine’s Day tomorrow due to lockdown? Well good news, we’ve knocked up some of our famous grazing boxes and they’re ready to go! Open until 3, Tecoma only #delisofmelbourne #tecoma #dandenongranges #grazingbox #valentinesday

15.01.2022 Aaaaaand that’s a wrap. For today After 10 solid hours of driving (I’d like to say that’s an exaggeration ) we are back home, and yes we have a wine in hand! It was amazing how many homes we visited today for the second and even third time for repeat deliveries, we must be doing something right! Our staff back at the shops were incredible under the circumstances and only one customer made one of our girls cry, so a win I guess? So, UFTG, FTG, Knoxfield, Boronia, Ringwood E...ast, The Basin, Olinda, Sassafras, Ferny Creek - we’ll see you tomorrow! Be gentle, today was a mammoth day so we’ll be a lil fragile See more

But for now this is where you can pre-order your grazing boxes! Enjoy!

01.01.2022 It’s been a tough few months but these girls are killing it Remember as we head into the Father’s Day weekend that these 2 will be run off their feet while we’re out doing deliveries So please be patient, give them an eyes smile and let them know they’re doing great...

01.01.2022 Well it’s been an insane couple of days since our Father’s Day boxes went live, Sarah’s fingers are bleeding from responding to all the enquiries and orders via email. We are overwhelmed and chuffed that it seems all of Southeast Melbourne wants to gift Chieftains goods to commemorate that special man in their family. As much as we were hoping to keep the orders open for much longer we’ve had pull the pin! Great job for those that nabbed one, for those that didn’t we’re in the process of building a system that will mean you never miss out again, stay tuned for that one!

01.01.2022 We won’t lie, we knew the response to our Father’s Day boxes was going to be big but since the post went live yesterday we think it might have broken the internet!

So, please be patient, if we haven’t responded to your can you deliver to this suburb question it’s because we’re still ironing out the logistics! If you had other questions we haven’t got to yet, you...’ll probably find they’re actually answered in the original post if you look carefully, if not we’ll do our best to respond today. Please only place orders via the email provided, if you’ve sent an order via Facebook or Insta, please resend via email.
