Industry-Based Primary Category Feast Masters

“Although the skills aren’t hard to learn, finding the happiness and finding the satisfaction and finding fulfilment in continuously serving somebody else something good to eat, is what makes a really good restaurant.” ― Mario Batali

Here's the Lowdown: About the Category

This category is for the Food & Beverage firecrackers in the Taupō district. This could be for a brick-and-mortar restaurant, food truck, café or bar, or it could be for those providing catering for events or other venues. Think of this category as being for those who create love in the kitchen, at the espresso machine or behind the bar and deliver it via food and drink to their customers.

You present your space with a great sense of aesthetic, you train your staff to create deliciousness every day, and you go the extra mile to wow people with a food & beverage experience they can’t get anywhere else in the district. Whether it’s a signature dish, cocktail or hot beverage, every morsel or sip feels like a feast!
