Kai Feast

Christall Lowe warmly welcomes you to a hākari (feast) at her whānau table — a celebration of flavour and hospitality, rich with the tastes of Aotearoa and stories steeped in memory and tradition.

In this beautifully illustrated journey through the art of feasting, you'll discover an abundant collection of kai and kōrero gathered from the mountains to the moana. Each dish is a delight — from comforting kaimoana hot pot and tender umu pulled pork to hāngī infused with native rongoā, alongside sweet treats like kūmara donuts, korimako cake, and burnt sugar steamed pudding.

These recipes are more than just food — they’re interwoven with tales of traditional food gathering, insights into feeding a crowd, and guidance on foraging and using native herbs. With Kai Feast in your kitchen, you’ll be ready to nourish both body and spirit for any gathering.

It’s kai time. It’s feast time.
