We are a distinctive Italian food stall bringing flavours from our tradition to local markets and events.
Everything we serve is handcrafted by us. We take great pride in sourcing prime-quality ingredients from local businesses, supporting our community while keeping sustainability at the heart of what we do.
Alongside our core menu, we also create special items tailored to specific events and occasions, showcasing traditional Italian recipes and seasonal ideas, such as our Porchetta sandwich, made with slow-roasted, whole deboned pork belly and loin, marinated with Italian herbs and served fresh in a sandwich.
While our current menu is designed specifically for street food service, we also offer catering, with a broader range of Italian dishes that can be tailored to your event, occasion, or specific request.

OUR Testimonial
OUR Testimonial
Federico Spinelli
I tried several meals from Cinque Terre and I've never been disappointed. Their focaccia is fabulous with each of their fillings (porchetta is my favourite). For sweet treats, the tiramisu cream puff is excellent, and the small lemon custard bites you just wish you could just keep on eating them! Sonia and Raimondo really put passion in what they do and it shows, additionally they're really lovely to talk to 🙂 Highly recommended!

ABOUT US
Enjoy OUR TASTE
Ciao! We’re Sonia and Raimondo, an energetic couple hailing from the picturesque Ligurian region of Italy. Our hearts beat to the rhythm of delicious food, and our journey in the hospitality industry has fueled our passion throughout the years.
Our story in New Zealand began in December 2018 when we stepped onto these captivating shores. Waiheke Island was our haven, where we soaked in the island life and had the privilege to cross paths with exceptionally talented and inspiring individuals!
We worked in renowned restaurants alongside incredible food professionals from all around the world. France, Germany, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Argentina, New Zealand… our community kept expanding and our love for food grew ever stronger.
We honed in on our skills and after years of hard work, we were ready to start what we had long dreamed of: starting our very own food adventure.
While on our travels around New Zealand, at the end of March 2023, our feet found their way to the vibrant streets of Christchurch. The city’s energy, culture, and warmth resonated deep within us, sparking the flame of a new adventure.
With hearts set aglow, we made the bold decision to pack our dreams and relocate to Christchurch.
We yearned to bring a taste of our beloved Italy to this new home, offering novelties to some while evoking fond memories of home or holidays for others.
