Traditional family recipes bring the taste of Lebanon to Miramar
A family-owned business in Miramar has been making traditional Lebanese snacks for the past 30 years, from traditional recipes passed down through generations.
Jamil and Waafa Dia, the founders of Alamir Bakery, immigrated to Wellington from Lebanon in 1990 to escape the war.
They opened a business in 1992, making small batches of hummus and falafel in a little commercial kitchen at the back of their house in Miramar.
Have you tried their hummus?
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
