SOFT PRETZELS
MADE TO ORDER There is a new head chef in the kitchen at Made to Order on the ground floor of Wintec House. David Humphry has returned to New Zealand having spent four years working for Jamie Oliver. Previously head chef at Montana where he cooked for thousands at massive events like the World Sevens, he is relishing the more bespoke style at Made to Order. The new menu has some firm favourites like the bang bang chicken along with a mix of crowd favourites in the form of dishes like the beer battered fish butty. Added to this are fresh vibrant dishes: pan seared market fish served on a bed of lettuce with fresh vine tomatoes, Spanish onion, basil, peppers, crispy garlic croutons and a creamy lemon dressing; and halloumi and avocado bowl with edamame beans, spiced chickpeas salsa, dukkha and beetroot relish. There are wines and beers to match along with a great cup of coffee with their in-house Diesel roasted coffee being served.

If you are a regular at the Hamilton Farmers Market you have probably already discovered Anni and Ronny Kurze’s soft pretzels and how delicious they are warm. The couple own the German Bakery in Waihi and while they make many delicious things, the pretzels are something they have been cooking up to go nationwide. Parbaked and frozen, these organic, vegan, sourdough pretzels just need 12 minutes in the oven and are ready to be enjoyed. Available via Bidfood for local chefs wanting to add them to their menu, the rest of us can get a six pack for $15 from the German Bakery in Waihi, Waikato and Cambridge Farmers Markets and very soon local food stores. www.thegermanbakery.co.nz
