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.
