A recent zip-zap across the Tasman was all about celebrating the joy of togetherness with family and friends. One particularly delightful dining occasion was hosted at Daphne’s Taverna, conveniently nestled in the vibrant heart of Ponsonby Road. We also took the opportunity to check out the fabulous Bar Magda, a Filippo cuisine restaurant located below street level on Cross Street, just behind bustling Karangahape Road.
We are still processing our recent trip back to Aotearoa. After four years between visits there were a lot of changes on the dining scene of our original homeland. There are pockets of beautifully restored early century buildings with well-designed streetscapes - such as Britomart downtown and the hip, fun venues in the lovingly restored 19th Century St Kevin's Arcade on K'Rd giving us hope for a bright and innovative future of dining in Aotearoa.
