“... A GOLD COAST BOY WHO WENT AND DID
THE ASIA CIRCUIT WHICH MOST OF THEM DO
IN THAILAND AND IN VIETNAM. AND WE WERE
QUITE FORTUNATE IN THE CURRENT WORLD
CIRCUMSTANCES, THE PANDEMIC ALLOWED
US TO GET HIM ON BOARD FROM HIS PREVIOUS
POSTING IN HANOI”

“We have six new food and beverage venues,
including two feature restaurants. Misono is,
our Japanese teppanyaki restaurant, which has
an addition of a sushi bar and a new Japanese
whisky bar; and our famous seafood buffet
restaurant Cirtrique Restaurant which has been
elevated in terms of its layout, look and feel, along
with the food offerings.
“Chapter and Verse, which is part of our lobby, has
been expanded with its exterior al fresco dining
area as well. So everything is new in look and
feel, but also in our kitchen team via our recently
appointed executive chef, Paul Smart, who joined
us at the end of October last year,” Ravinder
explained.
“He is a Gold Coast boy who went and did the
Asia circuit which most of them do in Thailand and
in Vietnam. We were quite fortunate in the current
world circumstances, the pandemic allowed us
to get him on board from his previous posting in
Hanoi.”
Guests who have been lucky enough to
experience JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort and
Spa since its debut have been extremely happy
with the transformation not only from an aesthetic
perspective but also from the elevated level of
service which includes personalised interaction,
personalised connection and an understanding of
what a guest needs.
