Join Te Waka Huia Wellington Museum in celebrating the opening of new exhibition Capital of Kai with a smorgasbord of foodie activities.
Capital of Kai explores how Wellington became a culinary paradise. From The Green Parrot to Rice Bowl Burger Bar, this exhibition is our love letter to Wellington’s diverse food scene.
Feed your curiosity with an exhibition visit, curator floortalks and food demos by local chefs and producers like chocolate-making demos with Baron Hasselhoff’s Chocolate. Tamariki can take on the museum’s Tasty Treasure Hunt too. Don’t miss out on sampling the local kai available to purchase from Kai Kart NZ too.
Bon appétit!
