For a limited two-week period, Restaurant Botanic will pause its signature degustation service to unveil a reimagined world of indulgence — where heritage meets whimsy in a refined take on high tea. Inspired by the early 1900s origins of our iconic, heritage-listed rotunda, this exclusive daytime residency offers a playful intermission from the everyday, brought to life through the creative lens of our culinary team.
This exclusive daytime residency is led by Head Pastry Chef Victoria Lennard, with the support of Executive Chef Jamie Musgrave, and invites you to discover high tea as you’ve never seen it before. Drawing on her global training and a profound connection to Australian native ingredients, Victoria has crafted a menu that artfully blends tradition with innovation — designed to captivate those who savour the delicate and the daring, in both sweet and savoury form.
Prepare for an unforgettable journey of bold flavours and unexpected delights. Relish in the delicate richness of crocodile fat mille-feuille, the silky smoothness of emu egg custard tarts, and the indulgent marron claw tartlets. Each bite is a sophisticated nod to Australia’s native ingredients, thoughtfully reimagined to surprise and captivate.
As you sip on garden-foraged teas sourced from our very own backyard, let the afternoon unfold with a splash of champagne—because what’s high tea without a little sparkle? This is not your typical high tea; it’s an exceptional fusion of heritage and innovation, where tradition meets contemporary flair.
Don’t miss your chance to experience this luxurious and thrilling reinterpretation of a classic, brought to life by the Restaurant Botanic team’s visionary approach.
