Reviews
The Luscious Food Store is a local cafe dedicated to serving great quality food in a relaxed family friendly environment.Where possible we try to source our produce locally including supplies from the Westmere Organic Butchers, Wild Wheat breads and even our beer from Hallertau Brewery in Riverhead. The kitchen is headed up by owners Jono Clarke and Mark Nicholson. Both Chefs have pedigrees earned in fine dining restaurants here and Europe, and have for the last 10 years been catering to some of the biggest film and television productions in Auckland including BBC’s Castaway, America’s Next Top Model and local productions including Outrageous Fortune and The Cult. Other events they have catered include The Louis Vuitton Cup, the Netball World Cup and Taste.
