'India meets the Mediterranean' Food Festival
Hello neighbors!
My family owns and operates an Indian supermarket located at the heart of Christchurch (Bombay Bazaar), which is right next to another local business - a Mediterranean supermarket (The Mediterranean Food Company).
A few months ago we got talking and this led to us collaborating to organise a free community event dedicated to sharing our love for Indian and Mediterranean cuisine and culture with others. A first for New Zealand, our 'India meets the Mediterranean' food festival will take place on Sunday, 2nd April at 322/328 Tuam Street from 10am-4pm.
We have sourced outstanding (some even award-winning) chefs from our local community to run open-air cooking demonstrations throughout the day, all of them have migrated away from their home country but continue to stay connected to their roots through their passion for food.
We will also be offering free store tours to those interested in learning about the unique (and potentially unfamiliar) ingredients we offer at our stores and how to use them in their day-to-day meals. There will be free food tastings at both stores, a selection of local food trucks/stalls, and market stalls (clothing, jewelry, henna). We have also invited local artists for live music/entertainment.
A lot of time and effort has been put into organising this event and we are so excited to play a small part in helping bridge the cultural gap between locals and those from other parts of the world such as India and the Mediterranean.
It would be awesome to see our community show support for this event, please come along and bring friends and family!

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
