Mothers Day – Native High Tea

Posted on by

Mum’s are very special. They do a lot for their families and to sum up all our appreciation and love for them on one day out the year is not enough but if you can sweep her off her feet with something extra-special, she will remember it always.

This year Mother’s Day falls on Sunday May 13th and Tukka restaurant has got a few extra-special suggestions to help you spoil the mums in your life.

Tukka will be serving a ‘native inspired’ twist to the traditional High Tea at 11:00am. For only $35 per person. Bookings only.

Sample sweet and savory morsels finished with a native flavour of course. Items include pumpkin, lemon myrtle scones served with rosella jam and chantily cream, finger sandwiches of house cured salmon and dark chocolate macaroons filled with quandong jam to tempt you. All to be accompanied with an individual native infused tea of your
choosing.

Our new Autumn lunch menu will be available for the rest of the day from 11:30am until 4:00pm.

With dishes like grilled mixed asparagus, Tasmanian pepperberry hollandaise, soft boiled quail egg and shaved pecorino and braised apple and anisata pie served with baked rhubarb ice cream, she couldn’t want more.

Treat mum to a 1, 2, 3, 5 or 7 course fine dining experience for dinner from 6:00pm.

She’ll LOVE it, especially since someone else is doing all the cleaning up.

A Tukka gift voucher is an excellent idea to prolong the spoiling if you have something else planned for your mum on mother’s day. Vouchers are available in $30, $50 or $100 but even nicer is our “Dinner for Two” or “Degustation” vouchers.

Those dining with us on Mother’s Day will also go into the draw to win one of 2 $40 wine & cheese tasting vouchers from Cloverly Wines.

Attributes which allow top restaurants to succeed

Posted on by

Did you know that while restaurant failure rates aren’t nearly as high as they are reported to be, they do still have a much higher failure rate than any other startup business? This begs the question, if so many of these restaurants fail then what makes the rest of them succeed? And what makes the difference between successful restaurants and award winning top restaurants in Brisbane? Today’s blog post will answer these questions and explain why Tukka Restaurant continues to flourish in this unique environment.

Remarkable Cuisine

One of the most obvious keys to success in a restaurant is the careful selection and creation of food and drink. This food and drink should be chosen and presented in a way that represents the themes and the ideals of the restaurants, and should remain consistent across all meals. You wouldn’t see an authentic Italian restaurant serving hearty pub food for example.

Exceptional Atmosphere

The same themes and ideals that are presented in the food and drink should continue on into the décor and atmosphere of the restaurant, in a way that makes your venue memorable. Not everyone has the biggest budget to decorate, but that’s okay. If you are creative and resourceful in the choice of your layout and materials, you can create an atmosphere that not even the most extravagant restaurant can match.

Successful Management

No matter the quality of the food or the splendor of the venue, restaurants will always rise or fall on the back of their management. A solid management team understands that not one person can or should do it all – specific jobs must be allocated to designated staff members who are to take personal responsibility for their roles. Whether it is Front of House or Back of House, everyone must work in synergy in order to achieve overall success for the business.

In today’s article, we have explored some of the elements which determine whether a restaurant fails, succeeds or becomes a true leader in their field. If you would like to see the benchmark of top restaurants in Brisbane, please don’t hesitate to visit our team at Tukka Restaurant.
