We had the meat & veg and the veg in a small bowl. $10and $9 respectively. Very tasty and cheap. Good spot to eat. Caters for vegetarians.

I think their slogan was ‘slow food served fast’ (or something like that).
What I realised in NZ is food is expensive and it’s hard to find healthy food, so I was so pleased to come across this place.
It’s a small shop but it had a bit of a buzz to it. Free wifi for a short time for customers.
The plate size determines the cost of your meal. I got so much for my money and I finished it all! It was full of flavour and well cooked. The salad was not a combination I’d have chosen if I was cooking, but it’s delicious! I also had a lovely wine to complete my meal. I’d definitely go back.
They also have clean toilet facilities.

Quick stop for breakfast while leaving town. Delicious gozleme sandwiches and smoothie. Wish we had time to have come back for lunch or dinner - everything was so fresh tasting.
