Neighbourhood - Mt Albert (with Nadia Lim)

Television (Full Length Episode) – 2012


Celebrity chef Nadia Lim takes a tour around her home turf of Mount Albert, introducing the people and places that make up this vibrant community. First stop is a French café tantalising with its authentic treats, plus a grocer next door specialising in French wines. Burmese-born Yamin Tun shares how she is bringing migrant stories to the screen through her Unitec filmmaking course, while a Sudanese mother tells her tale of resilience after resettling in New Zealand from a refugee camp. Finally, Barbara and Amrit Patel's 42-year-long romance, beginning with an arranged marriage that led Amrit from India to NZ. 

I was born in New Zealand, but 40 percent of locals living in Mount Albert, including my dad, were born overseas.
