About

Had the beetroot and walnut salad. Wonderful. Tender caramelised walnuts and perfectly tender vegetables. Full of lots of flavours. A next level salad.

Stopped in for a sandwich and a muffin. The sandwich was so delicious and fresh, full of delicious meat, pesto, pickles etc. At $11 this was a bargain compared to what I would pay in Christchurch. Also grabbed a chocolate berry muffin which was damn good too. Service was very friendly.

Well done all except the nashi from China. I thought it was a cool stored NZ grown one. I took one bite. It was tasteless and dry. Otherwise everything was up to scratch.
