When life gives you troubles…drink some bubbles!
Let’s get the party started…it’s just over seven weeks until Christmas and between now and then there’ll be plenty of opportunities to pop the cork and celebrate.
Are you looking for somewhere to host an end-of-year work function, or special occasion? Here are five of our favourite venues to celebrate in style:
For more than 30 years, iconic seafood restaurant Fins on Bells Boulevard in Salt Village has been the go-to dining destination in northern NSW. Located at Kingscliff and the brainchild of celebrity Chef Steven ‘Snowy’ Snow, this fine diner is all class with wooden plantation shutters, potted greenery and moody lighting; setting the scene for memorable meals with family and friends from an innovative and creative menu.
Sister venue Fins at Plantation House Function Venue on Duranbah Road in Duranbah is the Tweed Coast’s most sought-after new wedding and event venue. Nestled in a 65-hectare exotic fruit plantation, delve into canapés and champagne in style while taking in sunset views over Mt Warning to the west and the Pacific Ocean to the west.
Nestled in the heart of King Valley in northeast Victoria, La Cantina on Honeys Lane is the home of the Corsini family vineyard and winery. Built from Glenrowan granite in traditional Tuscan style, the winery and cellar door offer a unique tasting experience of cool climate wines, made following family traditions of no added preservatives and no filtration, retaining the full characteristics of each drop.
Celebrate the end of the year with wines to tempt all palates such as the 2017 Corsini’s Sparkling Chardonnay with aromas of toasty fresh blossom and notes of fresh green apple on the palate.
At Glenbosch Wine Estate on Beechworth-Wangaratta Road in Beechworth, it’s all about sharing the experience of fine food, wine and crafted spirits. Feel right at home among the vines while relaxing with a glass of estate wine such as 2020 Sangiovese Blush, or Glenbosch Craft Original Gin – made from favourite botanicals for the smoothest gin you'll taste.
Take celebrations to a new level with a dish such as beef sirloin, leek purée, confit leek and leek crisps, served with Bordelaise sauce and paired with a glass of Glenbosch Sangiovese.
Original ingredients, healthy eating and the art of plating are on the menu at Andly Private Kitchen on Oxford Close in West Leederville. Bringing joy to the mouths of all who visit, Chef Andly serves up a nightly degustation menu in elegant surrounds of dark wood, a stacked stone open kitchen counter and softly glowing pendents, creating an ideal foil for the cuisine brought to the table.
Book a table for family and friends to delve into amazing dishes accommodating your choice of key ingredients - there is no set menu as Chef creates plates such as stir-fried abalone, live from the tank, or crayfish in Asian hot and sour sauce, with sake salmon caviar and truffle.
