“Melbourne’s food scene captivates me with its endless creativity and diverse flavors—it’s a city that truly celebrates culinary innovation.”
Partnering with Sarah Townson of Anthology, we’ve created something that I believe is truly special—a place where tradition and innovation collide in the most unexpected ways.
Inspired by the full moon’s glow, a symbol deeply rooted in Thai culture. We’ve taken that inspiration and pushed it to its wildest limits, blending it with bold, Thai-inspired cuisine that plays with the shadows, embracing both light and dark. The ‘TIC’ in ‘LUNA_TIC’ is a nod to that duality, a playful twist that runs through every dish and every detail of the space.
