Food establishment in New Zealand

“INCREDIBLE! We're visiting Christchurch and I wish we'd discovered this restaurant earlier in our trip to have visited a couple more times. The space is welcoming with a beautiful patio heated by wood burning fireplace and electric heaters. The staff is friendly and attentive. But the FOOD, y'all! Each thing we tried was creative, beautiful, and incredibly delicious. Tonight's fish was grouper and it was served 2 ways: fried and grilled - both absolutely stunning. The tomato and peach burratta caprese would have been delicious as is but was topped with basil ice cream instead of fresh basil and it was one of the most unexpectedly scrumptious things I've ever had. What a culinary gem!!!”

“This is one of my favorite Thai places in canterbury. If you live outside of lincoln, it is worth the drive in to try this place. I have had the pad Thai twice and the crispy fish which comes highly recommended. Don't be afraid of the spiciness, get the medium! Beef cheek curry is to die for.”

“A generous portion was provided at a reasonable price, and the store was clean and tidy, perhaps because it was opened not long ago. Friendly staff, variety of toppings, and delicious food. I think that generous portion than the other shop. I had a satisfying meal with my family and absolutely recommend it.”

“One of only few place in town where you can get authentic chinese skewer grill! Love the ambiance and the vibe, but there could be a delay with orders as they only have one tiny grill outside that does all the work. And the price is a little steep.”

“Our favourite place to buy fresh fruit and veges. Lovely staff, fresh delicious produce and I love that they have a PNP butchery truck so we can buy meat at the same time :)”

“This place is going from strength to strength. All the staff a great. So friendly. The new layout is great. I don't go to any of the other bottle stores now. Would be good if they increased their range of light wines. Very competitive in pricing and often undercuts supermarkets for beer. Close with wine.”

“AMAZING organics and fresh produce! Love the local foods, beautiful flowers, organic meats & cheeses, and delicious locally baked sourdough. Always stock up here enroute back to Auckland! Wish we had your shop up here team! Love it!!”

“This has become a favourite café for me in the CBD and coffee is cheaper than other places. Service is good too, especially Funfun who is really friendly and sweet. Whenever she sees me walking here to get my morning coffee, she always knows what I want and will go inside to start making it before I arrive”

“This bakery does the best Mocha Frappe. I would literally drive 15mins from home to get my cold coffee here!! All the food in the display cases looked delicious. Purchased muffins, which went down a treat with my client. They prepare hot cooked meals where you can dine in and eat. Prices seemed reasonable, too. Good service seem to be nice people that run/own the bakery.”

“All I have to say is that it has been years since I've been here and I still think about it from time to time. Their salmon is the best I've had at any restaurant. Genuinely could not recommend more.”

“Best Malaysian food in Hamilton! it's also a lot cheaper than other places”

“The best staff I’ve ever come across at a SL store.”

“We were a large family group including 2 preschoolers- meeting up in Cambridge. We ordered several dishes but the big breakfast and small big breakfast was super yummy - well cooked and served quickly. The staff were lovely. A great play area for the children. Chilled glasses for our water as well. Will definitely come back next time we are in Cambridge. Thank you for a great place to catch up”

Everyone commented on how wonderful it was :) thank you so much Blomquists!;I would travel down from Auckland for one of your cakes!!”

“The best little bar in town. Close to shops and reasonable priced drinks always. They have better bar snacks than the cafes and restaurants nearby. The owner is very polite and friendly too”

“Very tasty food. Takeaways were nicely packaged. And friendly service. Only negative comment was not much meat in container, should have been given more for price. Would go again more protein included, I.e.chicken, beef etc.”
