Sip back and relax at the JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort & Spa's specially curated Spring High Tea Series, an exquisite three-part culinary journey, curated in collaboration with renowned chef Peter Kuruvita (Noosa Beach House, Alba by Kuruvita) and Dilmah Tea.
The series will commence on Saturday, August 12th with a Spring fruit inspired menu, followed by florals and herbs in September and October.
Celebrating the best of Spring produce, Kuruvita has come together with JW Marriott Gold Coast's Executive Chef, Paul Smart to pay homage to the JW Garden's home grown array of fresh herbs, fruits and edible flowers with flavours inspired by Kuruvita's Sri Lankan heritage.
High tea guests will be welcomed into the resort's tropical oasis, treated to three courses of delicious sweet and savoury canapés served on a traditional high tea stand, all crafted around a JW garden inspired element - Fruit, Flowers and Herbs. An assortment of unique Dilmah specialty teas will be paired and served to accompany each dish in the luxury tea series.
Guests can look forward to mouthwatering delights including:
- Chargrilled pepper chicken en croute, Bombay fruit chaat with Dilmah lychee and ginger dressing
- Red berry open choux
- Grilled sea scallop, sautéed spinach with Davidson plum and yuzu butter
- Smoked duck tart with freeze-dried raspberry and vincotto
Staying true to JW Marriott Gold Coast's philosophy of food designed to nourish the soul, mindfully curated cuisine made from local and seasonal produce and sustainably sourced ingredients, the Spring High Tea series will hero the best produce of the season, combined with the innovation and creativity of two chefs, both masters of their craft.
JW Marriott Gold Coast's Executive Chef, Paul Smart says: “We are so delighted to bring the elevated Spring High Tea series to life at JW Marriott Gold Coast.. We have thoughtfully dreamt up how to celebrate the quality ingredients the Gold Coast is known for, while incorporating produce from our on property JW Garden.
From the beautiful French champagne on arrival, to Peter's world-class menu, and the delicious assortment of quality Dilmah teas, each moment has been thought out with intention and care to ensure our guests leave with a delightful spring in their step!”
