Tataki Auckland's destination director Annie Dundas said the variety of cuisines on the list reflects the mix of ethnicities in Tamaki Makaurau.

Wales rugby international Rhys Patchell has plenty of experience but admits to some nervousness ahead of his DHL Super Rugby Pacific debut against Moana Pasifika in Dunedin on Saturday. Patchell goes into the campaign having had a taste of pre-season play but knowing the real deal of Super Rugby Pacific begins at the weekend. He's a great human and was super welcoming of me as a new player in the environment. "The way he views the game is potentially fairly different from how the Moana Pasifika team views the game, which is awesome because everybody has to learn and adapt to each other. He loves the boys, loves the environment, loves the team, loves the lifestyle and his family seems to be settling in as well."

Robertson also took assistant coach Scott Hansen with him, while long-serving players Richie Mo’unga, Sam Whitelock and Jack Goodhue have also moved on. So how will the all-conquering Crusaders, winners of seven titles in as many years under Robertson, fare now that he’s in charge of the All Blacks? New Crusaders coach Rob Penney has told stuff.co.nz that he is very excited, the reason being it’s a bit of a line in the sand for them. Just days after Penney took over the team, centre Braydon Ennor suffered a knee injury while playing for the All Blacks and will miss the season. Crusaders: Chay Fihaki, Sevu Reece, Levi Aumua, Dallas McLeod, Macca Springer, Rivez Reihana, Mitchell Drummond, Cullen Grace, Tom Christie, Dominic Gardiner, Quinten Strange, Scott Barrett (capt), Tamaiti Williams, George Bell, George Bower.

Discovery (Three) Sky’s decision to go after a bigger share of the advertising market appears to be working. Sky’s chief executive, Sophie Moloney, was upbeat about the new strategy. The Herald and Newstalk ZB owner’s operating profit was $56.2m, down from $64.7m in 2022 and under its lowest forecast made just in November. That was on total operating revenue of $340m (down from $355m). NZME, which through last year twice told the market it believed the advertising market was about to pick up, is less bullish now.

US existing home sales rose marginally back to an annual sales rate of 4 mln which it was last at in August 2023. In Germany things contracted harder, but for the EU overall their services sector is no longer contracting, helping keep things stable.
