Food
Our menus are based on simplicity, style and perfectly balanced flavours that you can feel truly great about eating.

We believe in using wholesome ingredients and, where possible, select free range and organic ingredients from producers who support ethical farming methods.  Only the highest quality produce finds it’s way into our kitchens and onto your plate.

We are members of the Slow Food Movement and firmly believe every mouthful you eat, or more importantly choose not to eat, can influence the way our food will be produced in the future.

We would love to use only organic, free range meat but have to be aware of the cost to you, our customers. It is more expensive, but the more people that support this method of farming the better in our opinion. We have links with many organic producers and on request, would love to provide you with fully organic menu options. If you would like more information please call us on 09 968 7809 or fill in our contact form.

Take a look at some of our our food on the Gallery page. We have recently had our photographer in again so we will be putting lots of new photos up in the next week or two.

Delivery of our food is $35 for Auckland City and inner suburbs, $50 for Greater Auckland. This includes pickup of platters if necessary, usually the following day.

Please bear in mind that sometimes we need to vary menus according to seasonal produce availability.
