A feast for the curious and the epicurious alike, Taste of Tuawhiti is an immersive dining experience that brings together three of Auckland’s most celebrated restaurants — Kingi, Café Hanoi, and Ghost Street — for a progressive dinner like no other. Held on Tuesday, 20th May, this multi-course journey through Britomart’s Tuawhiti Lane offers a delicious blend of mystery, exceptional flavours, and seamless hospitality.
The evening begins at The Hotel Britomart, where guests are welcomed with a glass of bubbles before discovering their first dining destination. From there, diners move between the three venues, experiencing a thoughtfully curated three-course menu with expertly matched wines.
At Kingi, expect a celebration of sustainably sourced seafood, with plates like kingfish crudo with grapefruit, caper, and bay leaf or pan-seared snapper in a tomato crayfish bisque. Café Hanoi brings its signature Vietnamese flair, offering vibrant dishes like ginger galangal chicken and green papaya salad with shrimp. Meanwhile, Ghost Street delivers bold, Beijing-inspired flavours with honey-glazed cha shao pork and aromatic fried rice.
With each course unfolding in a new setting, Taste of Tuawhiti is a true culinary adventure. A chance to connect with fellow diners, discover the rich culinary landscape of Britomart, and indulge in an evening of great food, fine wine, and a touch of spontaneity.
