PIE TIME
We're enjoying new inner-city lunch spot Heaven Scent Food Co (pictured), next to The Grove in St Patrick's Square. The team behind Heavenly Pies has gone from market stalls to this lovely, light-filled space where you can expect delicious pies such as port, wine, beef and blue cheese and braised pork belly plus salads and cooked breakfasts.
Open Mon-Fri, 7am-3pm, with evening hours and take-home meals coming soon. At weekends you can find the pies at the Hobsonville Pt Farmers' Market. Ph (09) 354 4440.
