Penrose is an industrial suburb of Auckland, New Zealand. It is approximately nine kilometres south-east of the city centre, between the suburbs of Oranga and Mount Wellington.
Because of its proximity to the main railway line and the Great South Road, industry began to thrive in the region beginning in the 1920s. Today, the suburb is almost entirely commercial, with a combination of run-down and newly developed areas.
According to the 2018 New Zealand census, Penrose had a population of 843 people and 297 households.
Despite its small population, Penrose is home to the old Penrose High School, which renamed itself One Tree Hill College in 2008 to avoid the 'western' connotations of the name.
Yesterday despite the CBD and Melville being turned into a test zone, we were able to enjoy a vegetarian class in our kitchen. For those who could make it, we made a delicious tabouleh, used all scraps to make a vegetable stock well reuse later, some beetroot chips and a no-knead bread (second pic). Next week we will make a challah and I will post the menu for each class on my page frenchprivatechef 😋😊

This was a little place in Penrose, Auckland where my Husband and I stopped by!
We had the Spicy Chicken on Rice and the Kaarage Fried Chicken.
It was delicious.. However, The Spicy chicken tasted as though it was over powered by Fish Sauce. If you enjoy that sort of thing , you would enjoy it.
The fried chicken could have been better. There wasn't much flavour, however the sauce it comes with compliments it.
I'd like to go back here because the resturants atmosphere was warm and cozy and the dessert cabinet looked AMAZING!!! Would also like to try more from the menu.. Like the Pad Thai and some of the seafood dishes.
Watch this space for another post on this place!
A really quick, easy and simple way to enjoy winter vegetables is braising with steam. Pour a little fat and water on them in an oven dish, herbs and fruits, maybe a clove of garlic and a couple of spices that you like. Cover with foil and cook until soft but still firm in a hot oven.

Silver beet, pine nuts and sultanas... the base for a vegetarian version of south of France Tarte de Blettes. Once lightly sautés in a bit of olive oil, lay a flaky pastry in an oven dish and once blind baked, throw in a beaten egg and a handful of your favorite grated cheese then place that mix on your dough back in the oven for another 30mn at 190•c. Bon appétit! 😋🤩😘
