Easter eggs, Chocolate Country – Sunshine Coast

Before heading to Aussie World you absolutely must stop off at Chocolate Country with the kids. You’ll be the favourite parent for at least the next couple of hours. This is a family business where tourists and locals flock to taste some of their speciality chocolates and beverages. These guys are open on good Friday for your chocolate fix and they will be selling some of the most delicious chocolate hot cross buns in town. Kick off the day with a chocolate hot cross bun and a chocolate milkshake, your kids will love it. Although it may not be the most balanced breakfast it will give them the sugar rush they need to tackle the obstacle course at Aussie World.

So after this riot of an Easter Friday, complete your day at one of the most family-friendly restaurants on the Sunshine Coast, Montezuma’s. This is like a little piece of Mexico embedded into the heart of the Sunny Coast. The environment is very relaxed and they even offer colouring-in books for the kids to enjoy while you dine. The walls are colourful and the decor is extremely vibrant. The kids will love to feast their eyes on all that Montezuma’s has to offer. Send your Easter Friday out with a bang by eating some authentic Mexican nachos, enchiladas or even an ice-cream taco for dessert. Parents make sure you wash back your food with their delightfully delicious sangria.
