There is not much of a cafe scene in Hokitika...although the word on the street is that a deli is opening sometime soon. I really miss going out for cafe breakfasts (to places that offer more creative choices than the cliched bacon, banana and maple syrup etc!) but for now weekend breakfasts are best enjoyed at home. Just need that espresso machine to complete the beverage side of things...
Today for a treat a batch of crepes was whipped up, and enjoyed with a selection of accompaniments - the rest of the Moutere Gold passionfruit curd, the old faithful of lemon juice and sugar, maple syrup with cinnamon sugar, and my favourite - dark chocolate custard cream and sliced banana.
Delicious, and so much lighter than the thicker american style pancakes that can leave a lump in your stomach. Having said that our crepe feast managed to suffice for both breakfast and lunch.
