Located in Gisborne/Tairāwhiti New Zealand
GEM cuisine is named after our
Green Eye Māori Chef Tihema Johnson.
With a wealth of kai making skills he has been serving the local plates of Tūranganui a Kiwa for the past 11 years.
Drawing from his diverse whakapapa of Māori, European and Rarotongan our GEM Chef creates simple but effective kai fusions alongside our team.
Following in his Nan’s footsteps, GEM kai is infused with manaakitanga & aroha or what we like to call the GEM Cuisine “secret ingredients”.
