Morningcider

Cider |
Inspired to make Morningside a better place to live, and by the love of a cheeky pun, The Cider Barons & Baroness decided to make what some consider to be the most bad-ass cider in the land. Coming from the neighbourhood that always looks on the bright cider life, we’ve found the in-cider information on juicing those local apples into something very a-peel-ing. From cheeky puns right through to our tasty drops, THIS IS HOW WE LIKE DEM APPLES. |

Jess's Underground Kitchen
 |
Frozen Meals |
Jess's Underground Kitchen came to life around my kitchen table. A friend was devouring one of my weeknight dinners and made a flippant comment: “I’d love to pay you to cook my meals during the week.” It seemed like an interesting challenge! We’ve come a long way since JUK’s first Thai green chicken curry back in February 2013, when customers used to pick up from the pink house in Ponsonby. It grew organically, by word of mouth... a delicious secret club. It didn’t take long to realise that there was a gap in the market for freshly cooked, healthy convenience food. I never set out to fill it; I was just cooking the food I’d always cooked. My week night dinners, but for hundreds instead of one. |
