About Char Baby
Char Baby is a Brisbane catering business owned and run by chef Nicole Noble, who spent more than two decades in kitchens – including stints as a private chef overseas – before turning a food truck into a travelling kitchen she calls the Moveable Feast. The signature offer is a grazing table filled with hand-picked seasonal fruit, cheeses, smallgoods, cured salmon, fresh, stuffed, charred and pickled vegetables, local honey, olives, nuts, house-made pastes and dips, artisan loaves, crostini and a sweet corner of chocolates and mallows. Stand-up feast menus, canapés and shared tables are also on offer, and you can combine menus. Menus lean on flavours from around the world, and Nicole can design a themed menu for your occasion. Vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free and nut-free guests are catered for with dishes made and served separately. The truck is largely self-contained with its own generator, though it can plug into two power outlets for weddings or events with music. It needs a flat parking space clear of overhanging branches.

Frequently asked questions
How does the Char Baby mobile kitchen work at an event?
The truck usually arrives one to one and a half hours before food service. Service runs about an hour and a half, then the team packs down over 45 minutes to an hour.
Is there a call-out fee?
Yes. Every event with the mobile kitchen carries a call-out fee, set at $300 inside Brisbane, while events in the outer suburbs are priced on request.
Can Char Baby cater for guests with dietary needs?
Yes. Vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free and nut-free substitutes are offered on both the stand-up and grazing menus, made and served separately for the guests the host nominates.
Does Char Baby supply tables, chairs or lighting?
No – the focus is food, plus buffet-table linen, ceramics and platters. Simple place settings and linen can be hired in for sit-down service, and other furniture can be arranged on your behalf.
What space does the food truck need?
A flat parking spot with no low branches overhead. The truck measures about 5.5 metres long, 2.5 metres wide with the servery open, and 3.4 metres high.
