Angelo’s Wild Kitchen brings wholesome, wild cooking into the homes of everyone. His simple, user-friendly recipes are the perfect beginning to a wilder, more holistic approach to food and cooking. There are plenty of gluten-free, vegetarian, and dairy-free options within each section of the book and the emphasis is on healthy, wholesome, stress-free food that heals and nourishes your body, mind, soul, and the environment.

Angelo Georgalli is the man behind The Game Chef, a successful, international television series and 2016’s cookbook of the same name. His down-to-earth back-to-basics, great-outdoors style of cooking has taken him from successful cafes and delis like The Fridge in Auckland to the beautiful wilderness of the Cardrona Valley near Queenstown and Wanaka in the South Island. His passion for wild foods, foraging, and eating as naturally, freshly and locally as possible is reflected in his new cookbook. 

Mark Airey has been shooting for over 30 years and as the founder of Spot X Publications, it has always been his desire to publish a Gamebird hunting book.

These spots have been compiled with the expert assistance of staff from the Fish & Game councils throughout New Zealand.

This book has over 400 hunting spots nationwide featuring:

• For waterfowl and upland game.
• Hunting tips from F&G experts.
• Species available in the area.
• Topographic maps showing access.
• Regulations, permits, contacts, and seasons.

It’s time to go wild in the kitchen! 

Wild Kitchen chef Angelo Georgalli has teamed up with Fish & Game New Zealand to make wild cooking easy and interesting for everyone. From tips and tricks for game-curious newbies to original and clever ways to excite the palate of the most seasoned adventurer, The Fish & Game Cookbook celebrates the amazing diversity of our game birds, waterfowl and freshwater fish. 

The Fish and Game Cookbook has over 200 pages of deliciously designed dishes, and is packed full of recipes, sauces, rubs, tips and techniques, as well as stunning photos and detailed articles. Prepare duck and fish like you never have before, or discover just how good black swan, pukeko and perch can taste. It really is a must have for every angler’s and hunter’s kitchen.

Chef Angelo Georgalli - author of The Game Chef and Angelo's Wild Kitchen - lives in Kingston, Otago, where he indulges his passions for fishing, archery, hunting and getting into the great outdoors. Often drawing on his Mediterranean heritage, the recipes he creates for New Zealand's wild fare always honour his ethos of respecting wildlife and living in balance with nature.
