Mum’s the Word

words by larissa klerck

Give mum the gift of deliciousness this Mother’s Day at QT Gold Coast.

Sunday the 14th of May is the date to mark in your diaries and book in for a day of eating, drinking and pampering. With a range of activities and events happening in the hotel, your old gal will be spoiled for choice (and a visit to QT will be the only gift she’ll need, believe us). So whether you’re after a low-key family breakfast or a cheeky Sunday session with the girls, we’ve got you sorted.

Flowers are nice, chocolates are great but if you think Mum will like the sound of high tea, cocktails a plenty and a Palm Springs inspired soiree then keep on reading.

Here are the options…

Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner in Bazaar 

The marketplace will be ready for action from the crack of dawn on the big day! Early birds will enjoy freshly baked pastries, toasty waffles, made-to-order omelettes and lattes galore at Bazaar’s famous breakfast spread from 6:00am-10:30 am.

If your mum prefers a cheeky sleep in and breakfast in bed, why not stroll on in after 12:00 pm for a glorious Sunday lunch? Treat your ma’ to endless plates of freshly trawled seafood, vibrant salads, slow-cooked meat dishes and Asian delights at one of the Gold Coast’s hottest lunch spots.

And if dinner is more your style, we’ll be taking bookings from 5:30 pm onwards for all groups big and small. But please – make sure you have an appetite because we don’t want you missing out on the most important part of the marketplace… dessert.

Qtea High Tea in Fixx Cafe
High Tea has got to be the most popular things to do on Mother’s Day right? There’s something about the combination of tea, coffee, cakes and treats that have mums swooning over the thought… even on regular days! If you haven’t had our Qtea High Tea before (actually, even if you have) Mother’s Day is the perfect excuse to come and check it out. Without giving too much away, our high teas are known for being quirky and fun with fresh ingredients from our rooftop garden! The chefs will often make an appearance to let you in on a few secrets about the special food items.

The $39pp package includes a savoury stand and a sweet stand plus two rounds of delicious tea and espresso coffee. You may like to celebrate a little with the $54pp package which includes all of this plus a glass of French Champagne on arrival. Set in the Fixx Cafe overlooking the pool and outdoor terrace, the Qteas are bound to book out, so get in quick!
