Elevate your outdoor gatherings with these gourmet picnic packs
Cheese and crackers might do for the first few picnics but it doesn’t take long for supermarket options to get repetitive.

There are plenty of Auckland hospitality businesses who have stepped up to offer us the picnic food of our dreams.

Lord knows local hospo needs our support at this time too – so help them out by ordering one of these gourmet hampers for your next outdoor gathering.

Amano

Chow down on favourites from the Amano Bakery, such as chicken mayo baguettes, meatball sandwiches and lemon meringue tarts.
