点评:Stopped here for lunch on my way into Oamaru, it is about 3 kms north of the main town centre. The shop linked to the café has the best selection of cheese to buy that I have seen so far in New Zealand, and they all appeared to be New Zealand cheeses, including blue and brie.
The restaurant is lovely, decorated in a pastel blue giving old school diner vibes.
I was seated in a little booth and given a menu and water but the waitress then appeared to forget I was there. They were very busy but she started taking orders from a large table that arrived several minutes after me. However i managed to get the attention of one of the other waitresses, and once I had ordered I did not wait that long for my food.
I just ordered the warm brie with toast, this came with a dressing of balsamic, grapes and almonds. The grapes and balsamic cut through the creaminess of the cheese perfectly and I really enjoyed my lunch. While there one of the other tables was ordering the large sharing cheese platter which looked amazing! However I am travelling solo so could not order it as it was huge!
翻译:去奥马鲁的路上,我在这里停下来吃午饭,它位于镇中心以北约3公里处。咖啡馆旁边的商店是我在新西兰见过的奶酪种类最齐全的,而且看起来都是新西兰本地产的,包括蓝纹奶酪和布里奶酪。
餐厅很漂亮,以柔和的蓝色为主色调,营造出一种老式美式餐馆的氛围。
我被安排在一个小隔间里,服务员给了我菜单和水,但之后她似乎把我忘了。当时餐厅很忙,她却开始招呼几分钟后才到的那桌客人。不过,我设法引起了另一位服务员的注意,点完餐后没等多久就吃上了。
我点了一份热布里奶酪配吐司,佐以香醋、葡萄和杏仁。葡萄和香醋完美地中和了奶酪的浓郁口感,我非常享受这顿午餐。我在餐厅的时候,看到另一桌客人点了一份超大份的共享奶酪拼盘,看起来棒极了!不过我是一个人旅行,所以没法点,因为它实在太大了!
