I have officially touched back down in Osaka but here are the last of my foodie pictures from NZ.
From top to bottom: hands down the best pizza in Christchurch at Cafe Val, an overdue catch up at the coolest new cafe: Gentle Giant, flavoursome shakshuka from Hello Sunday, local apples, frozen yoghurt (one split into two cos we stingy) and vintage cookbooks on Mother’s Day with my sweet mama at the Riccarton Sunday Market, more coffee (with local almond milk) at Black and White Coffee Cartel and finally, vegetarian black rice sushi (not Japanese) from Bento Riccarton.
I don’t eat much pizza and what I do eat is usually homemade, but that looks goooooooood.
Also the sushi.

Can’t say I’ve ever had it with quinoa but I’m sure it would be delicious.

By the way, have you ever had eel pie? I know they have eel sushi in Japan but I don’t think they serve eel pies in their restaurants. Or am I wrong?
