Personal message about supporting your local
For mother’s day this year my husband arranged for DeFora Café Garnet Road, to cater an evening meal for our family. A menu was sent by email with a wide selection of choices. I ordered pork belly which was cooked perfectly; creamy scalloped potatoes and a really yummy roast beetroot and haloumi salad. The vinaigrette dressing for the salad was to die for!
For dessert we ordered the sweet platter which had chocolate, fresh fruit and a selection of homemade slices that kept us going back for more over the following two evenings. The food was epic, servings generous and pricing very fair.
I wanted to acknowledge and thank Beth and Steve at DeFora for making mother’s day a real treat. I highly recommend their catering service – I can see it will make entertaining a breeze.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
