THE NEW ZEALAND SOUTH PACIFIC POP UP
On Saturday, March 31st Chef Julius packed our bags and took our palate’s on a trip to New Zealand! We had seen his pics and read a few posts here and there on Facebook regarding his amazing trip that he and his family went on earlier this year to New Zealand but I had NO IDEA what we were in store for. From the wine to the bites as we got seated. I must say it was truly an experience, buckle up and see below!
Cheers!
