Poll: Space or the Ocean — Where should our focus be? ☄️🌊

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Six seats. That’s all it takes for one of New Zealand’s most celebrated chefs to make his grand return home.

Their new venture, Ni, will seat just six diners at a time in a tiny railway cottage in the heart of Kākahi, near Taumarunui.
