Caffe L'affare


When my sister was visiting us from the North Island a couple of weeks ago, we drove down to Hokitika to do some op shopping and have lunch. We use to visit the Stone Oven Cafe, which is in this photo but at the time it was too busy and full of people so we decided to eat across the road at Stumpers Cafe.


I usually like to eat healthy as much as I can so I had ordered a warm Chicken salad which was very tasty. My sister went home again a few days later but I'm extremely thankful we were able to see her - she has a van that she has converted to a type of camper so she sometimes travels around the country.

What a wonderful way your sister travels. Perfect for visiting family far away. I like the photo of the cafe with tables on the sidewalk. Still nice and warm

Your sister has found a lovely, adventurous way to visit family. And by the looks of it, you both know how to find the nice spots together.

You seem to have had a few really nice and fun days with your sister. Maybe it didn´t matter that the stone oven cafe was too crowdy. The chicken salad looks very tasty.
Happy easter!

That salad looks great! I'm glad you got to spend some time with your sister. It would be fun to travel around in a converted van!
