I had the most heart-warming experience last week, while planning the look of our Pop-Up menu for September. I wanted Canola, for obvious reasons. But I also wanted my amazing sister-in-law's art, which I always use for my menu. So I asked my fellow Napierdorper, photographer if she had a Canola pic for me which might work. What do you know, she actually went out into the Canola for me, took a few FABULOUS pics, and arrived on my doorstep a few hours later with a stick! So amazing! From that point, my sister in law, artist took over and just look at these incredible results!!! I'm super-blessed. And super-happy! Next pop ups Sat 12 and Sun 13 September. 076 6281201 for bookings!

NAPIER.

Our pop-up cafè in Napier on the weekend was, once again, a resounding success. A full house of 30 people enjoyed a cosy lunch in a warm & inviting space, and we couldn't be happier! Huge gratitude to our followers & supporters! Here are some pics from last weekend.

The next pop up is over 2 days. Saturday 12th September, for tapas & light meals in the evening, and then Sunday lunch on the 13th.

Book! 076 6281201.

Hello friends!
So as you will see, our August Pop-Up in Napier is fully booked - and in fact, it's been full since early in July. But this is not a brag post: the reason we're posting this is to say, please book as early as possible to avoid disappointment! We can only seat 32, and it books up really fast! We have a whatsapp group for those wanting the forthcoming pop-up date & menu before it's published on social media. Whatsapp us on 076 6281201 to be added to that group.
And a heads-up, the next pop-up is on SUNDAY 13th of SEPTEMBER.
