Dig out your tassels and practise your Charleston. The Gatsby Party is about to begin — high tea-style. On a Friday evening, Mary Eats Cake will host a 1920s extravaganza, where you'll be able to dress your fanciest, dance your best and feast to your heart's content.
At the heart of the event is the launch of Mary Eats Cake's new summer cocktail list. Based on the blending of spirits and tea, the menu includes several celebration-worthy creations, including Mary's Teapot (vodka, lemongrass, Earl Grey tea, gin, apple and lime) and the Mild Spiced Negroni (a smoked blend of Aperol and juniper pepper ginger tea).
In between sampling these, you'll be treated to free-flowing sparkling wine and beer — complete with a suitably over the top Champagne tower — and bottomless high tea in the form of both roaming canapés and a dessert buffet. Meanwhile, live band Brooks and Bakers will provide the soundtrack and expert dancers will get the dance floor started.
The Gatsby Party will take place at Mary Eats Cake Brunswick on Friday, November 30. A second party will also run at its Montrose location the following night.
