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.

I have alot of cousins. My mum is one of 9 siblings who have all had children (my cousins) and their children have had children. I have one who lives in Hokitika and another one was visiting the West Coast last week so my daughter R and I had lunch with the 2 of them. I don;t know why the waitress in this photo was wearing a mask as those mandates went out a long time ago, perhaps she wasn't well.

We tried one of the local businesses, Stumpers Cafe and Restaurant for lunch and I was pleasantly surprised. Good coffee at a reasonable price and tasty food, nothing expensive so we will probably go back again at some point.

Good news is the cousin who was here for the week is moving to Rangiora soon which is just outside of Christchurch so hopefully we will get to catch up a bit more.
