west coast wandering

Well we didn't find too much in the way of amazing food on our travels, however the whitebait sammies at the Karamea pub were hard to beat. Suitably heavy handed with the whitebait, they cook their fritters in a pan then finish them off in the deep fryer so the outside is lovely and crispy. We went back for lunch the next day.



We visited Westport on the weekend and a farmers markets of sorts was set up through the main street. One stall had beautiful organic vegetables including the cute little pumpkin above.
The buffalo restaurant disappointed, the water buffalo had not yet made the transition from paddock to plate so the menu consisted solely of miscellaneous deep fried items, which we gave a miss.
