Sol Café – the new vision for Food and Catering at Links Hope Island has arrived!
The Resort’s revamped food service returns under the umbrella and management of Links Hope Island when the Sol Café opens Friday, 27th May 2022.
The exciting new menu (attached) will not only bring greater choice and variety for both members and visitors alike, it will introduce a new era in food service to our clubhouse and provide members yet another source of pride in their involvement at Hope Island.
The newly created menu is backed by several recent appointments to the catering team including that of Head Chef Damon Howard. Damon, who has created the new menu, has more than 30 years in the 5-star hotel industry and is seeking to bring a new food and beverage dynamic to Hope Island Links.
One of Damon’s key MO’s is mixing with customers to ensure he has regular, consistent and direct feedback as to the menu and presentation of food.
Cafe, Bar and Functions Manager, Sarah McCartney, is another new appointment to our team and comes to us following a significant and lengthy career at the world-renowned Star Casino on the Gold Coast followed by four years in a functions and events role at the highly regarded RACV Royal Pines Resort.
Joining these two key figures will be other significant members of the new team, namely supervisors, Jodi and Mark, who will no doubt become popular and familiar faces around the clubhouse.
Hope Island Resort’s mission in the revamping of this important area of operation is for it to be the centre of social experience for members and public alike, to deliver consistent and quality food and service and to play its part in improving the environment.
The name ‘Sol’ has been selected as the word derives from a verity of sources tying into the Links Wellness focus.
SOL is pronounced ‘Soul’ evoking a sense of synergy, depth, energy and the community feel within Hope Island Resort
During their empiric reign, the Romans continued to worship several sun gods, but they replaced the Greek word for sun, Helios, with the Latin Sol
Sol is a root word that continues to refer to the sun in the present day, appearing in words such as Solar.
SOL / Sun captures the light and airy aspect of our Mediterranean clubhouse and adjoining terrace areas as well as the warm, welcoming feeling The Links is keen to grow and promote.
Newly selected and modern colour choices will incorporate health, growth, freshness, quality and happiness and are sure to offer an environment in which those using the new food service area will be keen to spend a greater amount of time.
We are very excited about the introduction of our new facility and service and feel sure you will enjoy what is now on offer.
