For those saddling up to watch the race from home or the office this year, Treasury Brisbane’s Melbourne Cup takeaway high tea is set to be the perfect accompaniment to your cup-day celebration. For just $30 per person, you can get a sensational selection of sweet and savoury delights that will cater for every craving, with high-tea classics like ribbon sandwiches (in flavours like roast beef, ham and cheese, and smoked salmon with cream cheese and cucumber on offer) sitting pretty alongside mini quiches and mini frittatas. Those with a sweet tooth can wrap their hands around freshly made petite French pastries as well as sultana and plain scones served with jam and butter.

If you’re eager to level up your Melbourne Cup soiree with a luxe bounty of delicacies from Treasury Brisbane, contact the Treasury events team on 07 3306 8852 or email [email protected] to place your order. Just remember, orders must be placed prior to 10:00 am on Friday October 29 so dilly-dallying is not advised. Hungry folk can pick up their orders from 10:00 am on Tuesday November 2 from Kitchen at Treasury and you’ll even receive free parking at Treasury Brisbane whilst you snag your bounty of goodies.
