The Collective Palm Beach

A food-lover's mecca and a must-try destination for anyone on the Gold Coast, The Collective Palm Beach is 4 venues in one with plenty of tasty treats in store.

Yes, you heard right! The Collective is so called because it has collected the very best of South American, Italian, Asian and American cuisines and has created a bustling hub where just about the whole world can be dished up on a plate. And it's not just the sheer amount of choice on offer that has people talking. It's also one of the best hangout spots on the whole of the Gold Coast, offering a lush downstairs venue that's alive with greenery and flooded with natural light, whilst upstairs diners are sipping margaritas and enjoying resplendent views of the Hinterland. The Collective really does have it all.

So, with multiple kitchens to choose from, which corner of the world will you be jetting off to? Let's start with some bold plates at Rumba, perfect for an informal evening munch, and includes a whole range of tacos filled with prawns, mushroom or chicken. Alternatively, you can cross the American border for some Southern fried chicken tenders, towering hamburgers and mountains of shoestring fries.

Going East now and street food comes into its own with Dumplings galore, delicate bao buns, as well as sticky pork ribs, Asian stir fry and Japanese udon. With so much to explore, where are you buying your plane ticket to? Our all-time favourite, most delectable dishes at Fat Tomato include the exquisite Orecchiette with flavorful Lamb Ragu, featuring tender lamb simmered in a rich tomato sauce, and the indulgent Rigatoni Pasta alla Vodka, a creamy and savoury treat that never fails to impress.
