Company info

About us, Jeanette and Chris. Chris, an Eketahuna born gent, wanted a challenge so he ran away from NZ (as you do) and made a life for himself in the big smoke, cooking up a storm before managing large teams in cutting edge, buzzy restaurants. I’m Jeanette, your hello person. I love people. I’ll love you. We are foodies who like to nurture through the dining experience creating a sense of belonging, as in, you’re invited to dinner. We feel blessed to be able to welcome all you journeyers into Wallingford and its surrounds, lands of immense beauty and a community brimming with hope, vision and big heartedness.
