Pickup A Pie – Frozen at the Hut!

admin — Tue, 15 Nov 2011 01:14:02 +0000

Loving Hut at Mount Gravatt is trialling some delicious pies made by the notorious Tracey from Loving Hut Express at Redcliff Jetty Markets. These things are out of this world.

We’re stocking (all vegan) Hearty Gravy, Potato, ‘Chicken’ (yet to be cleverly named, perhaps you’ll have a suggestion?) and also Lentil Rolls, which are not Pies but will be just as happy to be eaten.

Rawsome Spaghetti

It’s back for summer, for only $8.90.

Ballad Boy MIA this Thursday

Our resident jazz legend Des – aka Ballad Boy – will be vibing up the Old Museum instead of the Hut this Thursday with Step It Up. Check them out and you might even like to go along to one of their upcoming gigs around South East Queensland.

Christmas Trading

admin — Wed, 19 Oct 2011 04:17:16 +0000

Just in case you wanted to expose some relatives to Loving Hut this upcoming holiday season, take note of our Christmas trading hours! Business will continue as usual but we'll be closed from the 23rd of December, reopening on the 29th.

An old favourite returns

Our Spring Fried Rice, uniquely flavoured with the leaf of the Toona tree (a relative of Ceder popular in Asia), has been a popular dish at Loving Hut Mount Gravatt almost since it opened. It comes and goes with seasonal variability, and you'll now be able to order it again, or try it for the first time!

The Sweet Deal is over

Thanks for taking us up on our free Cheese Pie offer if you did... it's all over now. Nothing to see here folks, except a shop full of delicious, unique, environmentally friendly, humane and healthy food! As always your support is so appreciated and we'll see you soon.

Brown Rice & Raw Chocolate Pie Now Available

admin — Mon, 12 Sep 2011 04:58:56 +0000

It's been a while, and many things have changed at Loving Hut Mount Gravatt.

Welcome back Tran!

We're happy to welcome back Tran, who was the creative force behind Loving Hut when it opened! She makes a mean Satay Nuggets and Golden Curry, which are both back on the menu.

Brown rice in store, as an option or individually

You can now order brown rice instead of white for $1, or on its own for $2.70. Brown rice is the preferred option for health conscious people, for it's higher fibre, lower GI and higher nutritional value. There are also environmental advantages as it is much less processed.

New Raw Chocolate Pie

There is also now raw chocolate pie in our display, just dying to show you how tasty it is. It's been a hit so far. Hope to see you again soon!

That's a Sweet Deal

Spend $38 in one shot at Loving Hut and receive a yummy, free, blueberry cheese pie!

That's right, those pieces of paper in the suggestion box kept piling up an it was clear you wanted to see them again - and in this case, it was arranged. Thanks to our dear customers who have been helping us along with valuable suggestions like these. Dumplings are available to order at the time of writing, and enquire about Samosas in store (or check the 'Snacks' menu).

Unfortunately, Loving Hut can't make it to the festival this year, but we're there in spirit (and sponsorship!) and know you'll have a great green day out.

When it Rains it Pours

The recent floods in Queensland have left many without family members and friends, and many many more with damaged, sludge-filled homes. The cleanup is well underway with a volunteer turnout so huge that there were too many for organizers to cater for. On Janulary 13 Loving Hut Brisbane also did its part, teaming up with local members of the Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association to cater 325 meals for flood victims sheltering at a local relief center, Delicious vegan Spaghetti Bolognese, gluten free noodles and french baguettes were on the menu. When it rains, it pours. It's been reported that the extreme weather fueling the flood waters is an combination of the local effects of La Nina, and the effects of global warming. Although no one weather event can be directly attributed to climate change, many scientists agree that increasing patterns of extreme weather are global. Thanks to all volunteers, living up to the spirit of Loving Hut and the humanitarian example of Supreme Master Ching Hai. An extra special note of thanks to Loving Hut regular Chris Jackson who provided transport for the food and volunteers. On ya Chris!
