Coming all the way from New Zealand, Hiakai is heading to Upstate New York to team up with Chef Marissa Ryan for two nights of fire, smoke and Hāngi at Happy Road Farm.

Hiakai Chef/Founder, Monique Fiso, and Chef Marissa Ryan first met in 2011 while working under the helm of Chef Missy Robbins at the then Michelin Starred, A Voce Madison. Despite now living on opposite sides of the world, the two Chefs remained good friends and are reuniting to transform Happy Road Farm into an outdoor pop up dining experience showcasing both American and Māori styles of outdoor cookery.

Using fire, smoke and ash to cook above the ground, and the traditional Māori cooking technique of Hāngi to cook below the ground - this event pays homage to centuries-old cooking methods while bringing the flavors into a contemporary context.

Tickets are $125 p/p incl. tax + gratuity. Each ticket holder will receive a 6-course meal created by the chefs paired with local and New Zealand wines. Tickets are very limited to this one-of-a-kind event, book now to avoid disappointment.
