Happy Hour
 The evening Happy hour is a great way for us to mingle with our guests. On fine Summer evenings we are found out in the garden, a great way to relax and discuss the days events. When the weather is cooler there is nothing more cosy than to enjoy company in one of the lounges in front of a log fire. We particularly like introducing guests to some of the New Zealand wines. New Zealand is best known for its outstanding Sauvignon Blanc from the Marlborough region just North of Canterbury while The Waipara Boutique wineries outside Christchurch are worth a mention. A selection of fine Chardonnays and Pinot Gris are also available. On the red side, the Central Otago, Martinborough and Marlborough areas of New Zealand are producing some world class Pinot Noir.
In addition we offer complimentary spirits, including Whisky, Bourbon, Gin, Brandy etc. And for those who prefer, soft drinks and juices are readily available.
 Here are a selection of the hors d' oeuvres we offer:
- Chicken liver pate on rye
- Akaroa salmon, avocado and ceme fraiche on Vogels
