Piki Poke, <strong>The</strong> Crossing<br />
Lyttelton ski maker<br />
teams up with<br />
champagne company<br />
Veuve Clicquot has teamed up<br />
with Lyttelton’s Kingswood Skis<br />
to release 10 pairs of limited<br />
edition skis.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Kingswood X Clicquot<br />
collaboration skis have a bold<br />
colourama print with a hardwearing<br />
finish.<br />
Founded by Kris and Alex<br />
Herbert in Lyttelton in 2005,<br />
Kingswood Skis is a boutique,<br />
hand-made ski maker wellknown<br />
for its durable skis with<br />
bold graphic prints.<br />
<strong>The</strong> 10 pairs of limited edition<br />
skis, which will be hand-made by<br />
Alex in the Lyttelton workshop,<br />
have been created for the<br />
Clicquot in the Snow festival in<br />
Queenstown in August.<br />
“We are honoured to be<br />
collaborating with Verve<br />
Clicquot on their annual winter<br />
champagne festival to develop<br />
this limited-edition ski. It’s such a<br />
natural fit. With this collaboration,<br />
we’re celebrating winter and the<br />
joy of things made well,” Alex<br />
said.<br />
<strong>The</strong> limited edition run of<br />
Clicquot Skis will be available to<br />
order direct from Kingswood Skis.<br />
Matariki night markets at the<br />
Arts Centre<br />
<strong>The</strong> Arts Centre will host night markets for<br />
the first time next week to celebrate Matariki.<br />
<strong>The</strong> markets, on July 6 and 7, will take place<br />
from 4pm-10pm. <strong>The</strong>re will be kapa haka<br />
performances, live New Zealand music,<br />
traditional kai and favourites such as fish and<br />
chips and pavlova, along with New Zealand<br />
arts, crafts, and jewellery. <strong>The</strong> markets are<br />
among a number of events the Arts Centre<br />
is holding to celebrate Matariki, which is the<br />
Maori name for the cluster of stars also known<br />
as the Pleiades. <strong>The</strong> cluster rises in mid-winter<br />
and marks the start of a new year.<br />
Dimitris now open near<br />
Plymouth Lane<br />
Dimitris Greek Food cart has returned to<br />
the central city. <strong>The</strong> iconic Greek eatery<br />
which opened more than 20 years ago<br />
reopened in Cashel Mall near Plymouth<br />
Lane on Friday. It used to be in Re:START,<br />
which later became the container mall,<br />
until it closed in April to make way for the<br />
new Riverside Market. Dimitris will have a<br />
permanent store in that new development<br />
when it opens early next year. Others can<br />
get their fix at the Riccarton Rd store.<br />
If you’re after a fresh and light lunch<br />
option, say aloha to Piki Poke.<br />
It specialises in poke bowls, a<br />
Hawaiian dish consisting of rice, salad,<br />
marinated fish and toppings.<br />
Up until February, it was a little<br />
experienced cuisine in Christchurch.<br />
That is until Piki Poke opened on the<br />
second floor of <strong>The</strong> Crossing.<br />
<strong>The</strong> concept is simple: Choose your<br />
base, protein, three salad ingredients,<br />
sauce and the toppings sprinkled over<br />
at the end.<br />
I went for a sesame slaw for the base<br />
topped with raw tuna as the protein.<br />
For the salad garnishes I ran the<br />
grated beetroot, edamame beans and<br />
seaweed salad.<br />
Of the seven sauce options, I opted for<br />
the creamy wasabi mayo, then topped<br />
with whole roasted peanuts, sesame<br />
seeds and crunchy fried shallots.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are two serving sizes, a regular<br />
or a large. Don’t underestimate the<br />
regular, which I had, because it’s more<br />
filling than it looks.<br />
If you want to stop in for lunch, be<br />
warned. It is a small space and the<br />
queue can go out the door. While it<br />
may not be the best atmosphere to eat,<br />
it’s a short stroll to <strong>The</strong> Terrace.<br />
