This is. Kat.
Kat has always been in ‘hospo’.
She loves making people happy with food. And even more importantly, with coffee. Kat proudly tells me that she and her team are coffee snobs. They don’t serve what they wouldn’t drink themselves.
Inspired by her own Mum’s ability to whip up delicious creations from what was in the pantry, Luna Bean offers freshly prepared brunch, bakes their own sweet treats and use locally made artisan bread. The croissants are from France (you read right!)
As the owner of the café, you’ll usually see Kat working her tail off behind the scenes. It’s all worth it though. She loves seeing the regulars, the social interaction and keeping up with what is going on in their lives and meeting their dogs. She acknowledges that whilst Nundah locals are very spoilt for choice, nothing makes her prouder than a regular turn up with a new face and seeing them leave Luna Bean fed and happy.
When Kat’s not in the kitchen, she’s resting (or gaming) with her bearded man, 2 cats, 2 guinea pigs and some fish. Oh, and not to mention, the café’s namesake – Luna, her beloved British Bulldog.
This is. series focuses on Nundah locals, interviewed and photographed by local contributor Gaylia Lee. Read more local stories here.
