Overview

With every venue around offering up a set menu brunch with a tipple, it's easy to forget the longstanding tradition of high tea and champagne. And you'd be missing a trick if you hadn't checked out Sheraton Grand Sydney's offering — it's been a top high tea destination for 25 years.

This summer, the hotel has taken its high tea game to the next level with the Royal High Tea. You can step into the palatial Royal Suite and experience sweeping views of Hyde Park, St Mary's Cathedral and Sydney Harbour — all while sipping fine champagne, of course. It's the newly released Moët & Chandon Grand Vintage 2012, to be exact, which will be paired with an elegant menu of high tea treats.

You'll be feasting on decadent savoury dishes such as tuna tartar, black caviar and creme fraiche; miso-glazed kingfish with pickled daikon and yuzu gel; wagyu carpaccio with horseradish cream and white truffle vinaigrette; and a lobster, scallop and mango salad. Plus, no high tea would be complete without scones with jam and cream, plus other delicate fruity sweets.

The fancy fare and champagne will cost you $250 per couple, or you can opt for a bottle of Dom Pérignon for $495 per couple.
