Five Go Wild is back!! A five-course degustation menu created by five of the region’s best culinary talents.
Kitchen Takeover unites some of the region’s most celebrated chefs for this one-of-a-kind collaboration. Creating a five-course menu inspired by the Plates of Plenty Challenge ingredient box, each chef will take the lead on their own course. Expect bold creativity, signature styles, and a showcase of the Bay’s vibrant local produce, all brought to life in one unforgettable night.
Join this year’s culinary talents; Kārena and Kasey Bird (MasterChef), Dan Lockhart (Saint Wine Bar / St Amand), Ian Harrison (The Grocer), Rika Inagaki and Brian Kim (RikaRika) and Stefano Raimondi (Autentico).
This event is part of the Flavours of Plenty Festival, an annual celebration of the Coastal Bay of Plenty’s vibrant food scene. The festival runs from 16 April to 3 May 2026.
