For definitive Gold Coast dining, experience the multi award-winning steak and seafood restaurant, Carmody’s at Southport Sharks. Fresh white linen, floor to ceiling windows and a vast dining deck area allows you to unwind in classic surrounds, taking in views of the lush grounds of Southport Sharks while browsing a menu of Modern Australian cuisine. Start with a smaller plate of chorizo, water chestnut and pork shoulder lumpia with ginger nuoc cham before moving onto a main of tempero baiano spiced salmon with carrot and coconut puree, nori sweet corn fritter and smoked yoghurt or perhaps an organic Byron Bay pork belly with bourbon and five spice on maple butternut puree. Be sure so save room for a decadent sticky date pudding with fig syrup, funnel cake and maple walnut ice-cream.
