If the thought of cooking your own Christmas lunch in the thick of summer makes you want to run for the hills, then opt for a relaxed and sumptuous grazing-style feast at LOT TWO. The culinary festivities will start with a mouth-watering long-table antipasto spread (think delicious cheeses, cured meats, dips, seasonal fruits and more), before you make your way through the festive grazing stations, which will be brimming with roasted and smoked meats, vibrant salads and an array of vegetables, as well as trawler-fresh local seafood like prawns, oysters, Moreton Bay bugs, smoked salmon and baby octopus. Finish your festive feast on a sweet note at the decadent dessert station – you’ll find everything from traditional Christmas puddings (is there anything better?) to mini pavlovas, baked cheesecake, tiramisu, cannoli, creme brulee, panna cotta, petite sweets and lollies.

Santa himself will be making an appearance from 12:30–1:30 pm – so grab a Santa selfie! Christmas Day minus the stress? Yes please.

Members are just $110, visitors are $120, and children aged 7–15 are just $49. Kids six and under are free.

Bookings essential – call reception on 07 5587 9000.

Note: LOT TWO is south of the border, so don’t forget the daylight-savings time difference!
