Welcome to Fife Lane’s Flavours of Plenty Luncheon
“The Bay of Plenty’s rich horticultural history, abundant seas and volcanic soils help produce some of the freshest and finest flavours in Aotearoa. And when incredible ingredients are paired with a deep cultural foundation of manaaki tangata (to provide and care for people), we create unforgettable world-class culinary experiences that weave a powerful connection from our place to plate.”
We have suppliers from all over the coastal Bay of Plenty from Nicki’s Egg’s in the lower Kaimais, greens from Kaimai Lettuce and Mama Kali’s Farm, Breads from Mount Sourdough Co, Brisket from Doug Jarvis Butcher, honey from Little Hands Honey in Papamoa and fresh Pikopiko from Rotorua.
