Christchurch is really a beautiful city and we've met some very nice people there.
It's a city we would like to return and revisit sometime in the near future.

Pescatore was really full of surprises! From the bright white entrance with huge crystal chandelier to the unexpected food presentation and brilliant tasty food. Who would thought to eat an oyster out of a glass jar? That was fun fun fun. The whole amazing experience was wonderful and it made me think about cooking and presenting food in another way. More interesting way. It also reminds me of Interlude in Melbourne which I wrote a post few years ago and you can see it here. They both have innovation and elegantly presented on plates.
