Welcome back to the Table! Pull up a chair and join Cherie, Lorne and Em this week. We're talking wine, what's your go-to? Are you as hopeless as Em when it comes to ordering a bottle at a restaurant? Have you ever confidently ordered what you thought was a white, only for a red to arrive at the table? Meanwhile, Cherie is counting down the days until New York, but securing a reservation at the restaurants on her hit list is proving harder than anticipated. And if she does manage to get a table, can she afford to order a $50 martini? Grab a drink and join us Around the Dinner Table.
More from Around The Dinner Table
This week, we’re catching up on everything that’s happened while we’ve been apart. From TikTok suddenly exploding to nearly 60 million views, rage bait, internet comments and figuring out what actually works on social media, to new products, summer launches and the growing Black Friday madness. Plus, we unpack a family trip to Bali, incredible food, questionable taxis, people-watching, travelling with kids and whether Bali still lives up to the hype. A proper catch-up episode with plenty of tangents along the way.
This week around the table, things go everywhere. We’re talking reheated long blacks, Japanese knife makers, the return of Secret Weapon, what’s coming in the Pepper & Me summer range, and whether AI is making life easier or slowly taking over the world. There’s also bacon buddies, the surprising versatility of a good sausage, dangerously buttery salt bread, steak-ordering regrets, Bali plans, and a sneak peek at the upcoming New Zealand Favourite Flavours Tour.
After a massive month celebrating 10 years of Pepper & Me, we’re back around the dinner table and feeling the birthday hangover. We debrief the chaos of book launches, awards, photoshoots and taking on far too much, before getting into this year’s slightly controversial Advent Calendar plan, upcoming travel, winter hibernation and the usual completely unnecessary rabbit holes. There’s Founder of the Year, Advent drama, AI conspiracies and an alarming amount of RatTok. Just another normal catch-up around the dinner table.
Cherie, Lorne & Cam join you Around The Dinner Table this week, it's really an hour of rambling about the inconveniences of Mid-Winter and trying to organise a jam packed life in a very busy season. Cherie really lets loose about her mindset right now LOL! Between all this we do let you in on the plethora of things going on at Pepper & Me right now and an insight into next year!
Welcome back to Around the Dinner Table, you're joined by Cherie, Cam and Em for another week of talking rubbish.
