We love baking at Lumen. It’s long been a really lovely part of what we do here.
Everything is made from scratch, from recipes we’ve picked up over the years and on our travels. It’s also another chance for us to use beautiful produce and know a little more about where the things we’re cooking with have come from.
These chocolate and hazelnut tarts are made with cacao grown by Emilce Castro. A real pleasure to get to bake with something so special.
Have one with a coffee, at the end of a meal, or order a couple for the table to share. Made here, by us.

Coffee is a big love of ours at Lumen People, so it’s always pretty special when we get to share coffee that we’re really excited about.
This one is a Gesha from Victor Bermudez in Huila, Colombia — and it’s a very good one.
Floral and bright, orange and jasmine, and a lovely creamy finish. It’s delicate and elegant — just a really beautiful coffee to drink.
We’re very happy to have it on the bar for a little while, brewing specially to order.

Hand made ribbon tagliatelle, kangaroo tail ragu, fermented tomato, herb cream, oregano. Pairs perfectly with a glass of chardy.
