I drove through Ashburton today on my way further south for a few days. I was in need of a coffee and a snack so decided to stop at Kim’s Kitchen in Tancred Street.

I’d been there for the first time a few weeks back for lunch and thought it was wonderfully kitsch and fun.

Today, I had some of their cheese rolls – which are something of a southern kiwi thing I believe (thin white bread with a cheesy filling that is then rolled up and grilled. I hadn’t had one for years.

Excellent coffee there too!
