The Hermitage – New Zealand

Took a couple of meals while I was here.

First night I went Á la Cárte.

For starts had the pork belly with crest and caramelised whatever.

Mains were a Hare roasted with a roast onion and a little bit of fricassee.

Downed a glass of wine as well.

Second night.

Went with the buffet.

Excellent choice of starters.

Some good rib eye for mains.

I stuck to the lasagna. On chef’s recommendation.

Places to Eat and Drink in Christchurch

Amongst others, I have visited these establishments.

Tap Room.

On the corner. Ducks sometimes invade the porch area and sneak around the plants hiding from the waiters who shoo them out.
Very entertaining.

Serve heated rock platter, as you can see featured on the photo. The platter is heated to a couple of hundred degrees and brought to your table with some raw ingredients, salts and spices.

It’s up to you to cook it up.

A bit more classy and slightly more low key than the other pubs on Oxford Terrace.

The Bog

Pop your head in at the end of the night.

Good place for a pint.
