What a fantastic day! We had the pleasure of attending the Curated Plate Morning Tea in August 2026, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The venue is set in a beautiful, family-friendly park, creating the perfect atmosphere to relax and enjoy the event. The food was outstanding—from freshly baked scones served with jam and clotted cream to delicious pork belly with roasted pumpkin. The selection of cakes, tarts, fresh fruit, pastries, and an incredible variety of sweet treats was simply amazing. Angela, your family, and your team have created something truly special. Your passion, attention to detail, and warm hospitality shine through in every aspect of the venue and the experience. We can’t wait to visit again!
