Have a look inside our tantalising April-May issue
This issue, we're all about fast, fresh and inspiring dishes bursting with flavour. We show you how to dazzle your guests with a sophisticated late summer dinner, and provide you with a round-up of the best strong beers in New Zealand.
With summer closing in and the days growing short, the cooler climate is all about no-fuss convenience, with a splash of flavour. Within the pages of our April-May issue you’ll find one-pan meals, pies from a pro and desserts to curb your cravings. We dish up an array of quick, easy and tasty options for every day dining and take a closer look at the best New Zealand-brewed strong beers from our tasting panel. What’s more, we’re invited into Unna Burch’s Wellington kitchen and meet the farmers at Crescent Dairy Co to discover the secrets of goat’s milk.
Dine al fresco
Easter is a time for family, friends and feasting. We take your Easter dining experience outdoors with a table settling that keeps on giving, no matter the occasion.
