The popular food movement that combines delicious Māori kai with modern ingredients and cooking techniques has found a home in Christchurch with the opening of Lu Lu’s Bar and Eatery.

Celebrating the best New Zealand has to offer, the philosophy of the restaurant encourages people to come together and connect over good, hearty, wholesome food. The delectable menu features fusion treats, such as, Pork’n’Watercress Croquettes, Rēwena Reuben Sandwiches, Hangi-style Kumara Bites, Cheesecake with Manuka Honeycomb, and Nan’s Steamed Pudding.

With Instagram-worthy presentation, the chefs include the finest details in every dish, with flourishing touches of Kawakawa syrup, watercress pesto, and toasted Rēwena Sourdough.
