Chef and co-owner Lani Lemuaua describes it as layered — mayonnaise on the bottom, with raw eye fillet, parmesan, and prosciutto on top. He says it’s a “pretty good kind of example of the stuff we do,” blending technique with familiar flavours that nod to a charcuterie board.

Three classes in, and while my instructor Ella keeps telling me, “You are doing so well,” the fact I still can’t swim, or that my limbs refuse to follow instructions, was starting to erode my confidence.

Thanks to major tech improvements and mass production over the past decade, the cost of wind, solar, and other renewables has dropped fast. As a result, most new power capacity built around the world came from renewables, and every continent added more clean energy than fossil fuels.
Money — the ultimate decision-maker in politics and business — is finally lining up with climate action. A big win for the planet (and maybe our wallets?)
We hope this news brings a smile!

We got talking about the power of nature — green spaces like parks, bush walks, or even just sitting under a tree, and blue spaces like the ocean, lakes, or rivers. Research agrees: being in nature really does help calm the mind. We’re lucky here in Aotearoa to have such beautiful spots right on our doorstep!
But sometimes, getting out for a walk or escaping to the beach isn’t an option. So we’re curious...
We want to know: What do you do to find a moment of calm when life gets a bit too much?
A hot cuppa? A good playlist? Staring out the window?
Let us know ... your go-to might help someone else breathe a little easier, too.
