You’re Invited to Celebrate L’affare Newmarket’s 5th Birthday!

Join L’affare Newmarket for their caffeine-fuelled birthday bash and find out how you could win a coffee subscription for an entire year.
Born from a desire to share the world’s best coffee with kiwis, L’affare is a pioneer of the coffee industry in New Zealand. They are a Wellington institution with their flagship café turning 31 this year, and their Newmarket café following in its footsteps, celebrating the big five this May 17-23.

Located on Melrose Street, L’affare Newmarket is a modern daytime eatery with superb coffee, and fresh and delicious local fare. With their fifth birthday coming up, L’affare feel like a good old celebration is in order.
Featuring sweet treats, fresh muso talent, lots of brews (maybe even some coffee) and plenty of beautiful kai from head chef Luke Adams; you’ll be left feeling like it’s your own birthday—minus the getting older part.
The plan:
L’affare’s starting the week off right and shouting everyone coffees on Monday. Head into the café to get your caffeine fix and mentally prepare yourself for the working week ahead.
Tuesday is cake day. Head Chef Luke has developed a delicious recipe using only the best coffee that L’affare has to offer, which you can sample and then take home to make in your own kitchen.
Hump day will be all about the beans. Spend $20 in the café on food or drink and take home your very own bag of the L’affare Newmarket Birthday Blend coffee beans – ground to your style.

Giving back to the community is important to L’affare, so on Thursday all coffee proceeds will be donated to the Auckland Rescue Helicopter Trust.
Ending the week on a high, there will be even more cake, brews, and the sweet sounds of Sophia Davies and Bobby Brazuka to close out the weekend.
Visit L’affare Newmarket on Instagram for more details and head into the Newmarket café during the week (May 17-23) to join the celebration. We’ll see you there!

We start by sharing what’s on the dish team’s radar, what we’re watching, listening to and reading. Harry Butterfield puts a twist on his Nonna’s agnolotti, Malissa Fedele reminds us of the importance of fibre, and Phoebe Holden fulfils a long-held dream, sitting down with Yotam Ottolenghi. Autumn is an abundant time, we make the most with pumpkin, kūmara, cabbage, cauliflower, feijoas, apples and pears. We’re dishing up dinners for two, including a Chicken Dumpling Lasagne, alongside easy weeknight meals. We honour our mums, revisit timeless classics, and add a little baking challenge. This issue, we encourage you to slow down, to enjoy writing your shopping list, and spending time in the kitchen. Because even when life feels relentless, there’s always space to share something delicious.
