Short article about Mediterranean Foods, New Zealand's largest importer of Mediterranean goods which turned 30 in June 2020. The Food importer, deli store and restaurant is owned by the Cuccurullo brothers whose family’s origins can be traced to southern Italy immigrants. More about the history of this family (and some recipes) can be found in their book Food and Family - Tastes and Memories of Italy, published in 2013.
