I wish I could go to Everyday Gourmet… everyday. It is a cute little cafe with delicious food and drinks, a great ambience, and a friendly staff. For those that love baked goods, they have an impressive selection of homemade treats. In addition, on the side of the store is a selection of ‘gourmet’ goods for purchase such as local honey, fancy vinegars, fruit cordials and so on.

My friend Sean is a bagel lover, and New Zealand is definitely not the place for bagels. (meat pies, yes. bagels, no). However, Everyday Gourmet is now his favorite place because they have decent bagels for New Zealand standards. They get their bagels shipped from Wellington. Lets be honest though, the most important part of a bagel is what goes on top and thats where Everyday Gourmet succeeds. They have amazing homemade pesto, and what would a bagel be without some cream cheese?

“Stop taking pictures so I can eat!”

Even those that are not keen on bagels or treats can find something they like. Recently I tried their beetroot and carrot salad, with some smoked salmon on the side!

But the best has yet to come… their drinks are amazing. They have many types of hot chocolate that I have yet to try. However, their mocha is unreal. The chocolate is so rich and creamy…

And those that need some detoxing, they have honey, lemon & ginger hot drinks. Definitely worth a try!
