@RekaHaros We sit in an okay and safe middle ground. Love how supportive our locals are!!! But our tourism focused/specialist friends are being left to disappear over here 😢
@Hilary_Barry You are beautiful, elegant and a lot of fun. I know they're poking fun at Marion by printing it, but it's a waste of paper and space. Don't give the Marions this platform @tvguideNZ. Bullying and freedom of speech are not the same. Liz (from beautiful, mostly sane, Blenheim)
@winegeeknz It was going so well. Now we're not seeing people trying. We gave all their details in our system but the app will make an outbreak so much more manageable. Now ee stand at the bar with a lovely smile and politely say 'I'll give you a moment to sign in BEFORE we seat you'.
@MohammadHussain My friend of 5.5 years is a NZ resident from Hong Kong, speaks fluent English with a sweet Kiwi accent, has NZ quals and owns a house here, but her mother in law still gives her the task of folding 50 dumplings for the family meal... to go alongside ham, potatoes, pavlova etc 🤣
@SiouxsieW We're constantly critiqued. Every dish, every moment. Sometimes we have to remind ourselves the mean 1% may be the loudest, but it's the gorgeous 99% that keep us in business. All the bubbles out here adore Siouxsie 😘
@RekaHaros $15,500 in cancellations today alone for us. But we have saved for such a moment and besides... like you we have a 'panic room'. I mean wine storage shed. I bought water for the shed. Seems like the responsible thing to do 😏
@RekaHaros I also bought a 'taste of home' as a gift for our new Italian chef who feels a long way from home and is ironically getting the flu (normal, safe, boring, every day flu).
They're locking themselves in to protect us. It's a beautiful time to add more Italian wine to your list so that their distribution will need to order as soon as business resumes #drinkitalianwine
@RekaHaros Thank you for your blog and for what you are all doing to protect the rest of us 😘. I couldn't find your wine but I added six new Italian listings to our offering as a thank you #drinkitalianwine
