Mother's Day is a special day for us to shower Mum with love and gratitude for all that she does. With this in mind, the TDE team has curated a special edition travel guide for a Mother's Day in Sydney. Whether you are a local, looking for new ways to celebrate Mum, or gifting her with a special weekend away, this is an inside look at how we will be celebrating our Mum's this Mother's Day, with accessories to match.
Eat: Margaret, Double Bay
Treat Mum to a lovely lunch at Neil Perry's Margaret in Double Bay, our go-to for a beautiful atmosphere and delicious, sustainably sourced seafood. The 2023 Restaurant of the Year in The Sydney Morning Herald's Good Food Guide, Mum will love an elegant seafood lunch with an elevated neighbourhood restaurant that feels both comforting and luxurious. We recommend ordering their Southern Garfish, with a slight wood fire smokiness and dressing of yuzu and chilli oil. With a significant menu that features the staples of Australian seafood, curated by Neil Perry himself, the restaurant has a dedication to high quality, beautifully prepared sustainable seafood. To accompany her to Mother's Day lunch, the Timeless Shoulder Bag in Vanilla is an elegant and timeless bag that will compliment every outfit.
Stay: Paramount House Hotel
Whether you're visiting with Mum for the weekend, or looking to treat her to a staycation, Paramount House is our favourite boutique Hotel in Sydney. Located in the heart of Surry Hills, in the former headquarters of Paramount Picture Studios, this hotel is one of the most stylish accommodations in Sydney. With a mix of heritage details and contemporary styling, this hotel is perfect for a cool and comfortable getaway. All rooms are stocked with Aesop toiletries, delicious natural wines and snacks from LP's Quality Meats. A stay at Paramount also provides you with easy access to delicious dining options. From breakfast at the rooftop AP Bakery, lunch in Paramount Coffee Project, or priority dining at Poly, Mum will have a weekend getaway like no other at this inner city gem. The Luxe Small Everything Pouch in Gold will protect and store all her travel beauty favourites in a luxurious pebble leather parcel that is chic and stylish.
Enjoy: Art Gallery of NSW
For a unique day of culture and art, Mum will love a visit to the iconic Art Gallery of NSW. Whether you're admiring the stunning architecture, archives of classic art, or exploring their current exhibitions, there is something for every kind of mum to enjoy. Currently, the 24th Annual Biennale is exhibiting at the gallery. Curated by co-artistic directors Cosmin Costinas and Inti Guerrero, the Biennale conveys the concept of 'solar joy' of multiple ethnicities, with a featured celebration of First Nations understandings of the cosmos. Our Timeless Tote Bag in Tan is a new fashion favourite, that will pair with her gallery outfit for a cool and timeless look.
