Queenstown's No5 Church Lane's Kiwi twist on Japanese bento

Queenstown's No5 Church Lane has given a Kiwi twist to the classic Japanese bento. Introducing: the Kai Box.
Inspired by head chef Trent Watson's travels to Japan, the Kai Box offers visitors and locals in New Zealand's tourism capital a fun dining experience for long lunches or quick bites.
For $25 per person, the Kai Box showcases the best of Kiwi cuisine with South Island prime meat on offer with lamington, chop salad and broccolini, and a non-alcoholic beverage to accompany. Diners can choose between:
- Lamb neck, kumara chips and kumara puree

- Polenta vegetables, succotash and arancini (V)
To try the Kai box for yourself, visit No5 Church Lane from 12pm to 3pm daily.
