What is the philosophy behind your food?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Fresh and seasonal, starting with the highest quality ingredients possible. Supporting organic, sustainable, and biodynamic farmers, growers etc. as much as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are some of your favourite flavours of summer?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Stone fruit, squash, tomatoes and zucchini blossoms \u2013 all heirloom varieties, of course. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are fortunate to have access to heaps of fresh seafood in New Zealand. What are some of your favourites that you enjoy, especially during summer?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I love foraging for clams. Aside from this oysters, paua, kingfish and john dory. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What seafood do you think is most underrated and how would you recommend people try it?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Octopus, braised and then grilled over coals, or kahawai and trevally sashimi. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is your outlook on healthy eating and wellbeing? <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cook seasonally, lots of fresh heirloom vegetables and heritage proteins sourced from great growers\/farmers. Cooked simply. I love BBQing and grilling over coals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is your advice for foodies who are currently doing the Fresh Start 6 Week Reset?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Enjoy yourself while doing the reset, eating and learning how to cook delicious new dishes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n
