I bet you’ve never had kina like this…

To mark New Zealand’s inclusion in the MICHELIN Guide, we’re inviting the world to dinner.

Kina is our sea urchin, hand-gathered off the west coast of the North Island. At kingi, in downtown waterfront Auckland, Andrew serves it warm on toast with pancetta. Sweet and briny against salty and smoky, a combination that just works.

It’s one dish of many made from sustainably sourced ingredients grown, caught and gathered locally.

So... see you at dinner?
