It's the first night of the Come Dine With Me New Zealand dinner parties, and first to cook is Monika. Week one features Monika, a Slovakian child carer, who's all about silly with a side of spice; Tony, an eccentric real estate agent with some cutting critiques and a few 'endearing quirks'; Hinemoa, a part-time tattooist and full-time eyebrow enthusiast; motor-bike riding, insurance broker Kyle; and stylish yoga enthusiast Sarah.
