“It’s generous in every sense: of spirit, serve, colour and flavour.”
A passion for traditional Mediterranean / Israeli cuisine.
Cooking has always been the focus of my life,
I’ve been a cook since my early teens. However when I left Israel to study in
the UK, it really dawned on me just how important good food is – how great food
can lift your spirit and make you happy, and bad food can bring you down.istro called “The Lunch Box” with the desire to make
food that would lift people’s daily life. The name embodied “food made with
love” like a mother sending her little boy off into the world with a parcel of
goodness, nourishment and of course a few little treats.
In keeping with my philosophy, when I later opened for dinner, and “The Lunch Box” was no longer an appropriate name, we rebranded as “Ima Cuisine” – where Ima means “Mother” in Hebrew.
Encouraged by the success and rave reviews that our food received, and always looking for opportunities to offer a better dining experience, we have begun a new venture in Fort Street, central Auckland catering for breakfast, lunch & dinner.
At Ima we invite you to enjoy our food – made with love and the finest ingredients – we know it will make you happy!
