During our South Island road trip, we spent a couple of nights in Christchurch. One of the things I had wanted to do while we were in Christchurch was check out C1 Espresso on HIgh Street in the CBD.
I’m not gonna lie, the only reason I wanted to go C1 was because I had heard about their sliders, and how they come to your table via pneumatic tube (what can I say, I’m a sucker for things that). Continue reading →
At the Brunch Club Christmas gathering, we were given goodie bags, in those bags we each got a bag of Sweet As Popcorn. I was fairy tipsy by the time I got home, and so I munched back half the bag before I went to bed and then ate the other half when I woke up. slightly hungover in the morning.
I REALLY loved the popcorn and raved about it all day, but was told I needed to try it while I was sober to see if it was a good drunk me thought it was (if this meant popcorn/eating, I wasn’t going to say no) Continue reading →
Travelling with dietary requirements can be a pain in the ass, even finding places you can eat before you get there can be a huge fucking mission sometimes. For our trip to Dunedin, I started looking for possible places we could eat about a few weeks in advance, and it wasn’t looking promising. One of the suggestions was for a place in Takaka, Golden Bay – how is that even close?! (for those not from New Zealand, it’s about a 10 hour drive from where we were staying)
We landed in Dunedin a bit after lunch and decided to go for a walk to see if we could find a place that had something gluten-free on the menu (turns out a lot of places actually, I was surprised); one of the places we found was a café called Modaks Espresso. Continue reading →
Today we headed out to La Boca Loca in Miramar for lunch. It was Phillip’s first time there, I’ve been trying to get him out there since they opened, because they’re pork tacos are amazing. It’s a bit far out though, and was even more of a mission to get to before we got our car. Continue reading →
It’s Wellington On A Plate time again, which means it’s Burger Wellington time again too! Last year there was one gluten free option (I shat all over it; whoops) this year there are three. Last night, we went to Trade Kitchen to try the TK Royale.
The TK Royale is gluten free by request and comes with a PrimeStar beef pattie, smoked cheddar, Trade Kitchen picked gherkins and Harringtons bacon, and is served with a side of triple cooked fries. Continue reading →
