Father’s Day is fast approaching and if you’re yet to plan something special for dear old dad, let this handy guide steer you in the right direction. From cool and casual to first-class and fancy, The Star offers a range of options, whatever flavour you favour.

Garden Kitchen & Bar
Let’s face it, dads aren’t always the most complex of creatures so if you’re keen to keep it casual this year, nab a table for lunch at Garden Kitchen & Bar and tuck into mouth-watering rotisserie porchetta with duck-fat roasted potatoes and salted crackling for just $29 per person. The meaty meal is sure to be a hit with dads young and old and includes a glass of beer, winning! Available from 12:00–4:00 pm.

Cucina Vivo
If your old man is more of a steak and veg kind of guy, knock his socks off with a perfectly cooked 500-gram grass-fed scotch fillet with roast potato, broccoli, and a side of garlic focaccia washed down with an ice-cold Italian lager at Cucina Vivo. You’ll definitely be in the running for favourite after that. The lunch sitting is available from 12:00–3:00 pm and dinner from 5:30–9:00 pm.

Harvest Buffet
Feast like a king this Father’s Day with a plentiful spread of food from around the world. Make a pit-stop at the seafood station before moving onto the carvery for a mouth-watering selection of meat. There’s a Chinese barbecue and Asian-inspired stations, an Italian section with rustic dishes and hand-made pizza and pasta offerings alongside glorious charcuterie spreads and cheeses and vibrant salads. Finish off with a little something sweet from the delectable selection of desserts, the trip to the decadent chocolate fountain and a special doughnut station. The Father’s Day feast is $50.90 per person, which includes a glass of tap beer.
