Discover Australia through a new expression of High Tea at The Westin Melbourne.

Created by Executive Chef Apoorva Kunte and our culinary team, Native High Tea celebrates the remarkable ingredients found across Australia, reimagining the traditions of High Tea through flavours that are distinctly Australian.

Across three tiers, native ingredients bring unexpected character to familiar favourites. Discover flash-seared yellowfin tuna crusted with mountain pepperberry and finished with finger lime, heirloom tomato and cucumber tartare with Davidson plum, and a shiitake mushroom pithivier with wattleseed.

Sweet creations continue the story with Geraldton wax and native thyme, rich dark chocolate with wattleseed ganache, and our take on the Australian lamington, layered with lemon myrtle, white chocolate, coconut and mango. To finish, freshly baked scones include muntries, raisin and blackcurrant with rosella, served alongside the classic vanilla scone with jam and cream.

Melbourne’s iconic High Tea, reimagined. Native ingredients take centre stage in a new experience celebrating the flavours of Australia.

Price: $80.00 per person, including unlimited Vittoria coffee blends, loose-leaf tea and hote chocolate.
