MELBA KARAKA LICENSEES

Connie and Hui joined the MELBA family because they are passionate about creating a warm, welcoming space where people feel genuinely cared for, a value they believe reflects the true spirit of MELBA. Serving the Karaka community is especially meaningful to them, as they see familiar faces every day, from families and school children to local professionals who have become more like friends than customers. They love Karaka’s calm, friendly, and connected “small town, big heart” atmosphere and take pride in being part of people’s daily routines, whether guests stop by during the day or visit for dinner on the four nights their team offers evening service.
