Hutt Valley NZ Keeping up with the Hutt 🙊🤩 From the Hutt River to the bush-clad hills, Hutt Valley is home to some of the region's best walking and mountain bike trails.

Meet Cholatid and Kick, the owners of karanthai.eatery in Wainuiomata 👋

What started as a food truck has blossomed into a warm, family-run eatery serving homestyle Thai food made with plenty of care.

We tried their crispy pork and yes, it was every bit as crispy and delicious as promised. Their green curry had so many layers of flavour that we couldn’t stop going back for more.

When we asked Cholatid and Kick why they chose Wainuiomata, their answer was simple: the community is incredibly welcoming and supportive ❤️
