Buon pomeriggio,
I hope you all had a great weekend, we did enjoy the sun, the markets and the beautiful celebrations we were made part of.
We were a bit tired but we soldiered through and prepped up a storm for this week.
We will out and about tomorrow at Northcote Intermediate School, this event is open to past, present and future NIS community. 4.30pm to 7pm.
Friday we will be heading down to the Due Drop Event Center to serve lunch (and maybe a little early dinner) to all the vendors that are packing in. I am pretty sure you will be able to access our food truck too so if you are out that way and can’t make it on Saturday definitely pop by.
And on Saturday it’s time for the long awaited Gluten Free Festival, please note that this is a ticketed event. Doors open at 9am for the Preview Session and at 10am for the General Admission and event finishes at 4pm (unless sold out prior).

That was a great first week back — thank you so much for welcoming us home and making the restart a little easier.

Waterview — The Waterview Coffee Project, 29 Daventry St, Waterview, Auckland. 4pm–8pm.

We hope to see you there 💛

Hello everyone!
Thank you all for your patience — sorry we’ve been MIA for so long, but we’ve had such a wonderful time with our family that the business had to take the backseat for a while.
That said, we’ve been back in New Zealand for a few days now, we’ve almost shaken off the jet lag, and we’ve stepped foot back in our beloved kitchen to start prepping.
We’re starting with a big week, so if you’ve missed us, you’ve got a few chances to catch up:
Thursday — Brother’s Brewery, monthly Vegan Market, 5pm–8.30pm. Vegan Night Market; Last Thursdays Brewery Mt Eden
Friday — back Leigh Central (been a while, hasn’t it?), 4.30pm–8ish. They’ve got Quiz Night on, so book a table or just pop by the caravan for takeaway.
Saturday — Pt Chev is back! 4.30pm–8pm, our usual spot, 340 Pt Chevalier Road.
Sunday — we’re catering a private function Dawn McHugh.
See you all soon 💛

The weather is looking pretty bad, with strong wind gusts and possible hail which makes it unsafe for us to travel 🥲 Pt.Chev is still on as it seems to ease in the afternoon, however keep an eye out for updates as we may open slightly later if needed.
