So the curry has been eaten and the results are in… Seido Auckland’s Curry-Ate night was a roaring success with six entrants… 2 in the herbivore category and 4 in the carnivore category. There was much sweating over the stove, here is a photo of Em grinding the paste in the traditional manner (with swimming goggles)

There were even ethnic snacks from one of the judges Caroline Ogilvie…
