Hi everyone! We just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who have sent us kind words during this lockdown. We were scrolling through our old posts and captured some of our photos from the last lockdown in 2020…. To this day we are forever grateful for all the support that was given to us last year as we honestly would not be here going through another lockdown without all your support! So thank you again and again🙏🏽💚

This Wednesday we will be back open operating a contactless pick up at the front door of kenko like what we did last lockdown. Orders can be made through our website www.kenko.co.nz and delivery via. .nz Pre-orders are also now available for Wednesday pick up. Our team will be equipped with proper PPE and hand sanitisers will be provided at the front door. We are extremely excited to start cooking up and serving buriboxes and bao buns again for all you lovely people💚 thank you again and look forward to seeing you all soon!

💚To all our beloved customers💚
As per the Prime Minister’s announcement this afternoon, Kenko will be closed further until 11.59pm Friday 27th or August.
A massive thank you to everyone who loves Kenko and chooses to support local businesses 🙌🏼 We’ve been through one lockdown before and we can all do it again - our team have great and efficient procedures and systems in place for non-contact deliveries & pick ups to take place as soon as we are safely able to enter into Level 3.
Until then, stay safe and be kind! Kia kaha 💚
