Over the last few years, celebrating Spring Racing Carnival has evolved – and while previously it was very much about being trackside, these days it’s more about enjoying a fabulous lunch, getting dressed up, and enjoying an afternoon with your friends.
Luckily for us, long lunches is something Adelaide does particularly well, and there’s a stack of amazing venues putting on some divine food and drink packages. And this one looks amazing.
InterContinental Adelaide is rolling out the red carpet for a Melbourne Cup luncheon like no other on 7th November.
From 12:30pm to 3:30pm, in the Riverside Restaurant, let the spirit of the Melbourne Cup sweep you off your feet in this spectacular SA location.
Kick off with a splash at the Seafood Bar, where Coffin Bay Oysters await. Or perhaps a delicious Tuna Crudo tickles your fancy? Swing by the Live Carving Station, where the Asian 5-spiced Pork belly is the talk of the town.
Cheese aficionados, the Grazing Tables are calling your name with a spread of local cured meats and cheeses. And if you’re plant-based, the Vegan Butchery has got your back.
Sweet tooth? Dive into a dessert wonderland, crowned by a Belgian chocolate fountain that’s begging to be dipped into.
But it’s not just about the food. Don your race day best, and you might just trot away with a prize for the day’s best-dressed. And what’s a race day without a tipple or two? Sip on signature cocktails and high-end wines, crafted with love from local distilleries.
With limited spots and an event this fabulous, it would be a good bet to get in early. At $190 per person, you’re in for a feast, a drink, and a Melbourne Cup experience that’s truly top of the class.
Giddy up, Adelaide!
