Poll: Do you think the bottle store should stay?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Bader’s last liquor store is taking the fight to stay in operation to the High Court.

Super Liquor Bader, operated by Deol Enterprises 2012, is appealing a decision by the Alcohol Regulatory and Licensing Authority to overturn the Hamilton store’s off-licence.

Suellen’s sweet Christmas tradition

Hilda Ross Retirement Village

The festive season is always a great excuse to indulge your sweet tooth, and this time of year poses the perfect opportunity to bring a real showstopper to the Christmas table.

For Suellen’s family, that showstopper is Croquembouche, an impressive tower of cream puffs bound together with spun sugar that is popular at weddings in France and Italy.

What began as a birthday treat at a local French café has become a cherished Christmas tradition for Suellen and her 17-year-old twin granddaughters, Ellie and Sadie. Every year, the trio gather in Suellen’s apartment at William Sanders Village to cook this festive dessert - a holiday highlight they all treasure.
