ConventioIfIfyou’reattheGoldCoastConvention and Exhibition Centre in Broadbeach for the netball or basketball, it would be remiss not to dine at Social Eating House and Bar (below; socialeating house.com.au). As the name suggests, it’s all about breaking bread over share plates of confifit pork belly, tuna sashimi and fresh scallops as you work through the extensive roster of domestic and international wines. For a conversation starter, order the one-kilogram saltbush lamb shoulder slow-roasted in sheep’smilk yoghurt.
