2008 Mother's Day Hamper Winners

Customer Feedback - Mother's Day Lunch


"We all had a great time, service was excellent and food was very satisfying…and plenty of it! We would have no hesitation in recommending your company" - Laurie, 2008


"The cruise was absolutely beautiful and your staff were fantastic.  We had a fabulous time and enjoyed the time spent with the family" - Pam, 2008


"We all had a wonderful time on Sunday. My Mother and Mother in law had a great day and we will be looking into something like that for next year, might try the lunch if it’s still on. Thanks for a great day" - Kelly, 2008


Just a little feedback regarding our Mothers Day FAMILY outing... Vessel - Comfortable and Clean Food - Excellent - Buffet was Plentiful and the combination of flavours was great. All the meats and fish were HOT.. I didn't get to eat straight away as I had my baby to look after first but when I finally did get to the buffet there was plenty of food and it was all presented beautifully.

Kids Meals - Totally unexpected.. I didn't know that they would get their own individual meals PLUS dessert.. That was well thought of and SE NSATIONAL... It made my children feel special and gave them something to focus on.... I as a mother thought that was FANTASTIC. - T. Muscariello, 2006
