QT MELBOURNE MAN TEA
This Father’s Day, QT Melbourne is treating your old man to a (not so) civilised QT Man Tea.
On Sunday 1st September, scones will be swapped out for sticky pork belly, and cucumber sandwiches exchanged for Crispy Fried Chicken Drumsticks thanks to QT Melbourne’s culinary team who have designed bespoke Man Tea menus with Dad’s palate in mind.
At QT Melbourne, the team is serving up the meat tray of Dad’s dreams, with a side of panoramic views from The Rooftop at QT.. Think Sticky Pork Belly, Crispy Fried Chicken Drumsticks, Truffle Mac and Cheese and an abundance of curly fries; the contented silence at your table will say it all. Oh, and did we mention the Rooftop has a newly installed Melbourne-proof awning? Rain, hail or shine, The Rooftop at QT has you and Papa covered.
