Hei Hei turns 2! It’s our birthday weekend and we’ve got an IMPORTANT UPDATE to share:
On the 29 of June we will be closing our broadway location.
A massive THANK YOU to Papakura and everyone who’s been part of this journey — we’re so grateful for the love and the community we’ve built together. Incredible support, memories, and a whole lot of growth.
To our amazing team - past and present- THANK YOU for jumping on board and being part of this little project. We truly couldn’t have done it without you.
While we search for a new location, more central this time, we’ll be taking a well-deserved break to rest e spend time with family away.
Very excited to start fresh and on our own terms!
Sending lots of love to our friends still at the food hall — go check them out and keep supporting local!
Come say HEI (and goodbye!) over the next two weeks and grab some chicken before we head off ✨
