Does your mum fancy an Italian feast? Look no further than Cucina Vivo’s indulgent three-course Italian lunch and two-hour beverage package. For $145 per person, you, mum and your loved ones can start with an antipasti platter brimming with prosciutto, parmigiano reggiano, marinated olives, grissini and seasonal fruit, alongside housemade mushroom arancini, rosemary and garlic focaccia and buffalo mozzarella. For mains, you can devour spaghetti marinara with king prawn, red snapper, calamari, Kinkawooka mussels and pipis, while a side salad of cherry tomatoes topped with aged red-wine vinegar, basil and ciabatta will keep things fresh. Last but certainly not least, finish off the perfect meal with a selection of small Italian-inspired desserts and gelato. Now, we know what you’re thinking, what about the two-hour drinks package? Well, you can wash down your meal with the likes of 821 sauvignon blanc, Dal Zotto ‘Pucino’ prosecco and Wolf Blass ‘Blass’ shiraz, as well as various beers and soft drinks. Lunch is between 12:30–3:00 pm, so book your table quick-sticks to avoid missing out.
If seafood is your mum’s love language, then Garden Kitchen & Bar is well worth a visit, especially considering she will receive a complimentary glass of sparkling wine with the purchase of a signature seafood platter. If Asian cuisine is more her style, fear not! She will also receive a complimentary glass of bubbles upon arrival when having dinner at Japanese restaurant Kiyomi and at yum cha house Uncle Su when enjoying lunch and dinner. More ocean-caught delights await at smorgasbord central Harvest Buffet, where for $129.90, mum can lap up a full seafood buffet lunch after being treated to canapes and a glass of sparkling upon arrival.
