The Chic Guide: Tell us more about Maison Covington!
Katy Bialczak, Owner of Maison Covington: Maison Covington is the newly opened gift shop located inside Left Bank Coffeehouse!
The Chic Guide: What’s the inspiration behind Maison Covington?
Bialczak: Any time I travel, I’ve always loved to shop at small, independent stores with unique items to find non-traditional souvenirs. The most shops like this I visited in other cities, the more I realized I would love to start one in Covington, which, before the pandemic and even during, has been growing and blossom gin into a real vibrant city.
The Chic Guide: Who’s behind the business?
Bialczak: Me! My parents are Left Bank Coffeehouse Owners Russ and Jackie Slone.
