A gastronomic tour of Otaki and Te Horo

Have you ever taken a gastronomic tour of Otaki and Te Horo Food outlets? Well you are in for a tasty treat.

In the morning, you will be assailed by the warm aroma of a cooked breakfast or delicious pastries; at noon, you will not be able to resist the craving for a long lazy lunch at one of the many gorgeous cafes.

In the afternoon, the coffee shops and bakeries with aromatic blends will invite your taste buds to try the cakes, sweets, pies, rolls and handmade artisan bread, then wash it all down with a fruit smoothie, milk shake or tea and coffee. At dinner, you can try one of the restaurants, the spicy flavours of Indian or Chinese, traditional fish'n'chips or make your choice from an Al a Carte menu.

The large gastronomic variety will pose a taste bud dilemma when you visit Otaki and Te Horo: to encompass all of the dishes in just a few days is impossible – you'll need a whole lifetime to sample all the amazing food available.

Discovering Te Horo Beach

Mr 3 1/2 discovering Te Horo Beach for the first time, what an exciting time, a wild and ruggered beach full of drift wood to climb, shells to collect, stones to throw into the puddles and waves to jump and plenty of treasures to find. A very exciting afternoon playing on the beach followed by a picnic in Nanna and Poppa's caravan.

The Long Walk Home (Day 2) - By Zoe Mounsey

The Long Walk Home – day two Day two started very early for me and I was soon on the train to Mana ready to do it all again – a hot bath and a good night’s sleep had ensured that I was still raring to go. My walking partner was not quite so raring to go as was suffering from a sore ankle but she had strapped it up and joined me at the start. The words of encouragement on the second day were from Porirua’s mayor and we were soon on our way.
