After a tough 2020, Hamilton s Pat and Anh Chaimontree had some family time over summer, and are planning to change up their menu.
Ten months since New Zealand ground to a halt during the coronavirus lockdown, the effects of the virus are still being keenly felt.
In the third instalment of
Stuff’s Covid Diaries, reporters revisit five New Zealanders to see how they are managing the impact of Covid-19 and what they hope the new year will bring for them. Fans of Hamilton s Banh Mi Caphe have their menu favourites - but a shakeup is coming. Since the restaurant started seven years ago, the food has reflected Anh Chaimontree s Vietnamese heritage, and flavours she learned in the kitchen with her grandmother.
