Kurt Lovell (Project Salubrious) - a successful project

from Dirty Linen - A Food Podcast with Dani Valent · host A Deep in the Weeds Production

There are so many ways to be inclusive when it comes to dining. Kurt Lovell runs Project Salubrious, a three-year-old cafe north of Brisbane. Following his own health issues, he eliminated dairy, gluten and grains from his own diet, and has reflected that style of cuisine at the cafe. What’s the response been? How does he deal with sceptics? And how hard is it to run an independent business which is more expensive than those around him? https://www.projectsalubrious.com.au Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Project Salubrious 03:02 The Journey of Project Salubrious 05:50 Emphasizing Local Produce 08:47 Personal Journey with Food and Paleo Diet 11:52 Creativity in Limitations 14:17 Running an Independent Hospitality Business 14:46 Reflections on Fine Dining Experience 14:57 Understanding the Value of Unique Cafes 15:45 Conclusion and Future Aspirations SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER FOR EXCLUSIVE ARTICLES, NEWS, GIVEAWAYS AND BEHIND THE SCENES https://deepintheweeds.us6.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=d33e307cf7100cf947e2e6973&id=d17d8213f5 Follow Dirty Linen on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dirtylinenpodcast Follow Dani Valent https://www.instagram.com/danivalent Follow Rob Locke (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/foodwinedine/ Follow Huck (Executive Producer) https://www.instagram.com/huckstergram/ LISTEN TO OUR OTHER FOOD PODCASTS https://linktr.ee/DeepintheWeedsNetwork Dirty Linen is a food podcast hosted by Australian journalist Dani Valent.
