Publishers Text

Designed for travellers and armchair shoppers, this guide describes the best producers and retailers in New Zealand. Chosen for their quality, rarity, range and handling of their ways, they include butchers, bakers, fishmongers, delicatessens, coffee roasters, greengrocers, orchardists and cheesemongers. Not all foods are sold at shops; some are cottage enterprises available from "doorstep" or farmgate, others are sold only by mail order. The third edition features 298 new entries (including cooking schools, caterers and food events) and very few of the existing entries remain unchanged, having expanded or modified to meet the demand of changing times. Since the last edition in 1997, there are many new foods, some of them produced for the first time in New Zealand, including a proliferation of New Zealand oils. Also notable is the number of "proper" sausage makers, new cheese makers, bakers, producers of salsa balsamica and verjuice, and superb confectionery.
