I was able to find what I was looking for and when looking for around also found Something else for the kitchen cupboard, a staff asked if I needed help, I said ,told her what ai wanted ,she happily assisted me. Lovely lady who knew where to find what I had asked and went and got it for me and took it to the counter where I paid for it. Sorry didn't get the ladies name. Will go back to Chef's compliments again.

Most excellent. Wide range of all things related to eating and drinking and food preparation. I didn't see a kitchen sink but most else was there.

Fantastic array from all over the world of everything you could ever need for a kitchen dining experience. Shops like this don't exist anymore. A must visit in Taupo.

I purchased two beautiful Gin glasses for my mum for Christmas and one of them had unfortunately broken in the post. Vicki was amazing and sent me another one that arrived a couple of days later. Highly recommend, great products and amazing customer service 10/10
