Live Well. Travel Well,

Through the eyes of a Local: A Taste of the South Pacific,

New Zealand • Australia • Fiji

Thursday, November 19 | 6:00–9:00 p.m.

An intimate evening of food, stories and connection inspired by the South Pacific.

Join Elaine of Reka Luxury Travel and Cassandra for an evening around the table exploring the flavours and traditions of New Zealand, Australia and Fiji. Together, we'll prepare and enjoy a selection of dishes inspired by the places Elaine knows and loves — from pavlova and lamingtons to savoury favourites, fresh seafood and island-inspired flavours.

More than a cooking experience, this is an invitation to taste a little of the South Pacific, hear the stories behind the food and discover the places through the eyes of a local.

It's a small taste of the philosophy behind Reka's upcoming Signature Journey: South Pacific — Through the Eyes of a Local, travelling in March/April 2027.

Come for the food. Stay for the stories. Leave with a taste for travel.
