Eat without hesitation.
A note to our coeliac and gluten-sensitive guests, from the chef who built this kitchen for you.
For a long time, we thought we were doing enough.
We had gluten-free dishes on the menu. We kept the oil separate. We had our own protocols. For most of our guests, that worked. We thought it was enough.
And then three things happened, almost at the same time.
The first was quiet. We just started noticing more of you. More guests asking for gluten-free dishes. More guests asking for coeliac-safe options. Not as a preference — as a need.
The second was personal. Our chef was diagnosed with gluten sensitivity herself. Suddenly the questions you had been asking us were the questions she was asking every time she sat down to eat anywhere else. She knew, from her own table, what it felt like to wonder.
The third was a conversation. A guest told us, plainly, how much she worried about cross-contamination when she ate out — the fryers most of all, where so much is shared. We had dedicated fryers. Dedicated oils. Colour-coded chopping boards — yes, we had those, long before any of this. And yet we understood exactly what she meant: however careful our separation was, she would still have to take it on trust. That was the moment we understood something we hadn't quite seen before.
It doesn't matter how careful you are when there is still gluten in the room.
You would still wonder. And honestly — so would we. There would always be that small, quiet doubt in ourselves, no matter how many things we separated.
For you, dining out has never really been about choice. The industry talks about gluten-free options — a few dishes, a marked menu, a careful server. We had all of that. But what you actually need is something the industry rarely names: safety, vigilance, and trust. Not an option. A whole environment.
So we made the only decision that gave you all three.
We took gluten out of our kitchen. All of it. Not a section. Not a station. The whole room. Because the only way to remove the risk is to remove it. And because the flavour you came here for was never going to be something we'd compromise on, every dish was rebuilt around that promise — not around it.
If you're dining with us tonight — welcome. We hope you enjoy the food, and we hope you feel the care we've built into every part of it.
If you haven't joined us yet, perhaps take this as an invitation. Reserve a table for you and someone you love, and let us cook for you the way we wish every restaurant would.
In the meantime, the rest of this page is the long version of our commitment — the certification, the testing, the policies, the proof. Read as much or as little as you want. And if any of this sounded like your story too, please share this page with someone who might need to read it. There are more of us than the industry has been willing to see.
Safety.
A kitchen without gluten. Not a station. The whole room.
Vigilance.
Every dish, every ingredient, every shift. Reviewed and reviewed again.
Trust.
Independent certification. Independent testing. Nothing taken on our word alone.
Not some of the menu. All of it.
Most restaurants that mark dishes with a "GF" symbol still cook with gluten in the same kitchen. The same boards. The same fryers. The same hands moving between the bread basket and the salad. For a coeliac diner, this is not a meal — it is a calculated risk.
A separate prep zone reduces risk. It does not eliminate it. Flour drifts. Hands move. Equipment is shared. In a kitchen that contains any amount of gluten, the question is never if contamination is possible — only how often it is acceptable. For our guests, the answer is never.
In July 2025, we removed every gluten-containing product from our supply chain, dismantled every recipe, and rebuilt the kitchen as a single, unified gluten-free operation. There is no "safe section." The whole kitchen is the safe section.
This decision was not driven by trend. It came from listening — to our guests, to the chef who lives with the same condition, and to the moment when we realised that "careful" is not the same as "safe."
A kitchen, rebuilt.
Coeliac Australia's accreditation is one of the most rigorous food-safety standards in the country. This is what it took to earn it — and what it takes to keep it.
Ingredient Audit
Every ingredient, sauce, oil and stock — over 240 items — reviewed, documented and reclassified for gluten content. Every supplier confirmed in writing.
Recipe Reconstruction
Every dish on the menu disassembled and rebuilt. Soy sauce, miso, dumpling wrappers, dessert bases — all replaced with certified gluten-free alternatives without compromising the original flavour.
Kitchen & Storage Redesign
Physical separation of incoming goods. Dedicated prep zones. Colour-coded tools. Re-organised cool rooms and dry stores. No gluten enters the building.
Staff Training & Protocols
Every team member — front and back of house — trained on coeliac safety, cross-contact, and customer-facing communication. No exceptions.
Independent Testing
Dishes sent to NATA-accredited laboratories for gluten analysis. Results returned: not detected. An ongoing program — every new dish, before it reaches a guest.
Annual Recertification
Coeliac Australia returns each year. The standard does not relax. Neither do we.
The rules we keep every day.
Certification is the standard. These are the daily practices that uphold it.
No outside food in the kitchen.
No staff member brings outside food onto the premises. No exceptions. The same standard we hold to our dishes, we hold to ourselves.
Guest-brought items, sealed and stored separately.
If you bring a celebration cake, it is wrapped in protective film and stored away from any of our preparation areas — even though our ingredients carry no gluten themselves.
Routine testing for new dishes.
Before any new dish reaches a guest, samples are sent to a NATA-accredited laboratory for gluten analysis. We do not rely on assumption.
Annual recertification with Coeliac Australia.
Every year, the certifying body returns. The audit covers ingredients, suppliers, training, storage, and process. Nothing is grandfathered.
Ingredient review and audit.
We review every ingredient our suppliers and vendors provide. New ingredients are recorded, checked, and audited before they enter service.
An open line to Coeliac Australia.
For any uncertainty — a new ingredient, an unfamiliar process — we consult the certifying body before, not after.
Not detected. By design.
We don't ask you to take our word for it. Independent laboratory analysis, published in full.
