An island of modern upscale cuisine in a sea of chicken-fried steak and gravy,

The best
burgers in town aren't made by an American but a Kiwi, and they're served up in this
simple counter-style cafe. From the tilapia fish and chips to the New Zealand green mus-
sels, all the food is made fresh on the spot. Grab one of the bison meat pies before they
run out and do it soon because there are tentative plans to move in 2014. No credit cards.
