Cafes Closing But Not At Brewtown
Upper Hutt's unique Brewtown is all set to step up and expand its array of cafes/restaurants which shows just how well the entertainment and craft beer complex is performing.
Cafes and restaurants are closing and changing hands like never before in this Covid era. But the rise and rise of Brewtown is being maintained.
Brewtown has currently got five restaurants/cafes associated with craft beer specialists directly or indirectly.
These will be joined shortly by a bicycle-theme cafe.
The adjoining workshop can easily convert your normal bike with an E-bike function. The cafe will have free use of bikes and trikes for kids and no doubt will be well suited for the growing cycling populous as a cycle cafe centre. Of course craft beer will be available along with usual cafe refreshments and the promise of delicious cafe meals of all kinds.
Suellen’s sweet Christmas tradition
The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.
For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.
What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie. Every year, the trio gather in Suellen’s apartment at William Sanders Village to cook this festive dessert - a holiday highlight they all treasure.
