Jazz Up Your Food Both Out And At Home
Onslow
Tucked inside The International apartment building in Auckland is Josh Emett’s latest culinary establishment, Onslow, bringing a modern-zen environment to a street steeped in business and tertiary education.
Onslow takes into account all the prior experience of Emett’s career, which traverses Aotearoa, London and New York and is elegant and discerning without being haughty in any way.
Onslow is focused on delivering New Zealand staples like King Salmon and sausage rolls in a way that shines a spotlight on the origin and producers. The takes on classics are unique, with the salmon trolley being sliced and served directly in front of you and the sausage roll featuring duck meat – a mash up you don’t know you’ll love until you sink your teeth into it.
The top-notch food coupled with a relaxed atmosphere makes Onslow the place to be regardless of whether you are at a lunch with work pals or catching up with a friend.

Smart Home, Smart Pizza
Pizza is one of those dishes that you get delivered at a cost. By the time you get your pizza, it’s usually not at it’s best.
However, with the new Breville Smart Oven™ Pizzaiolo, pizza lovers can rejoice at the thought of having authentic pizza at home. The smart oven is the first countertop pizza oven in the world capable of heating to 400°C, while contending with the residential power limit, and took four years of research and development from the Breville Team.
It can cook classic Neapolitan pizza in under two minutes with the Element IQ® System, ensuring that crust, base and toppings are perfected. Being the game changer that it is, they have settings like that will create “leopard spotting and char” through the seven pre-sets with the Smart Oven. Every part of the device is created with the user in mind with safe handling, easy cleaning and advanced insulation.
For the adventurous experimenters in your life, there is also the manual mode which lets you choose the temperatures at which to cook the base and toppings separately.
Silicone Solutions
We’ve been given many reasons to stop buying single-use plastics, but we haven’t been given a good pitch of what alternatives are out there. Zip Top containers are not only reusable but can stand up when opened, resolving the lifelong issue of flimsy bags collapsing in on themselves.
The Zip Top range is made with 100% platinum silicone containers that are dishwasher, freezer and microwave safe. They are made from a mould in a single piece and are free from many of the harmful chemicals like BPA, lead, phthalates and PVC. A single Zip Top can replace 5000+ zip lock bags and come in a range of sizes colours to suit your needs.
The general kitchen range will fit most day to day uses and are available in frost, grey, teal and peach. Zip Top also sells baby containers in minimalist animal shapes and breast milk containers that are designed for convenience and ease of sterilization. Save both the environment and yourself from the trouble of dealing with flimsy bags in one fell swoop.
