Winter is almost here…
New Menu Incoming!
June is around the corner, signalling the changing of seasons, and importantly, a change in menu!
The team is busy developing new season items for our Delivered Catering Menu which will be rolled out in June. Think winter veg - butternut, beets, and broccoli paired with spices and punchy flavours.
The usual suspects will get a refresh - our bread fillings will get an update, our ever popular salads will get a seasonal overhaul, and we’ll see some new morning and afternoon tea items amongst a number of classics which will stay.
Launch date: Thursday 13th June!
If you have any confirmed orders with the old menu after this date, our team will be in touch to update your order to the new menu.

Winter vs Summer Events
Midwinter Events
Winter can feel like a gloomy time with the chilly mornings and earlier sunsets. Although not the peak time for events, it is a great time to take advantage of the season for a mid winter themed event.
We partner with some awesome inner city venues that would be perfect for a cosy Christmas themed event – our favourite local mentions are Whiskey & Wood on Cambridge Terrace, The Boatshed on the waterfront, Prefab Hall on Jessie Street, or our very own Atrium on Allen Street. Check out more venues we cater at here:
Summer in Martinborough
We’re excited to announce that we are taking bookings for January and February weddings and events in Martinborough this summer 2024/25!
If you’re not convinced of a winter event, then don’t hold off on your plans for this summer. Wedding venues in Martinborough are extremely popular and book out months in advance, especially in January and February.
If you are looking for a venue in Martinborough for your summer event, check out Tironui Farm, Lismore House, and Martinborough Tree Church.
Garden to Table
Garden to Table is a fantastic charity that supports practical learning in schools, taking tamariki out of the classroom, into the garden, and into the kitchen!
Tamariki develop practical life skills and gain confidence in the garden and kitchen by growing, harvesting and making meals from scratch using the produce they grow. Everyone sits down to eat together, taking part in the age-old ritual of sharing food.
This week, one of our Directors, Taz, had the pleasure of guiding a group of Year 4 students at Amesbury School. Taz offered up his expertise in the kitchen to help the students make minestrone soup and savoury muffins. The kids were very excited to learn some tips from a professional chef!

Call for crockery and platter returns!
Part of our Delivered Catering service includes a next day collection of our catering plates and platters, returned to HQ to be washed and reused.
Our drivers do their best to collect everything, but sometimes crockery and platters get moved or missed by accident, especially in large offices or communal kitchens!
While we love using high quality plates, platters and boards, we desperately need these back to ensure we have enough for all our deliveries! Please take a moment to check your cupboards and drawers for any of our crockery - we especially have shortage of RAMEKINS which we use for our dipping sauces - see pictured!
All our crockery has a silver Food Envy sticker on the bottom of them. Please call us on 04 242 0080 or email office@foodenvy.nz and we will swing by to collect them asap.
