LAWRENCE SMITH/Stuff

Chef Al Brown is the mastermind behind Cooking up a Storm, billed as a nationwide dinner party for cyclone relief funds.

Chef Al Brown wants Aotearoa to come to the table.

Brown is the mastermind behind Cooking up a Storm, which is bringing restaurants and cafes nationwide together for a fundraising dinner, in support of those impacted by Cyclone Gabrielle.

Brown believes the fundraiser will mirror the mood of the country at the moment, one where we are hungry for conversations, for solutions, and, as ever, for good food.

“It’s about trying to emulate what is happening in those regions where a table and kai is bringing strangers together to share stories, empathy, support, and aroha,” he told Stuff.
