Cook’s break

Looking to get away? How about a very decadent weekend at Huka Lodge? When you’re not relaxing in the privacy of your lake-side suite you can join other guests for a wine and cheese pairing experience by Sabato, Louis Roederer Rosé Vintage Champagne over brunch, a cooking demonstration with full attention paid to oysters, a cocktail clinic and then dining with a difference — food stations showcasing whitebait, wagyu beef, crayfish, cured ham, caviar, smoked salmon and other delicacies. This weekend of pure indulgence is happening on Friday May 18 and Saturday May 19. Find out more at hukalodge.co.nz
