Hi, I'm Chris Rupe, a restaurateur of twenty years living in Auckland, New Zealand, one of the most beautiful countries in the world. Down here we are exceptionally lucky to have some of the best fare, seafood, produce and wine located right at our doorstep.
My passion for food, wine, travel, and photography are the foundations of this blog, as well as some of my personal ventures, including my restaurant SPQR in Auckland. I look forward to sharing with you some of my local experiences and discoveries, as well as experiences from abroad, including trips to London, Como, and San Francisco to name a few.
