A Day Trip to Oamaru<br />
Oamaru’s Victorian Precinct is a busy hub filled with<br />
shops and galleries, plus a handful of excellent cafés and<br />
restaurants. Our favourites include Cucina (1 Tees Street)<br />
for an Italian feast and Tees Street café (No. 3) for lunch<br />
and coffee. Both are right in the heart of the precinct and<br />
an integral part of the city’s fabric. For a nutritious breakfast<br />
or lunch, we can’t resist tucking into the açai and green<br />
bowls at Tees Street.<br />

The Welder<br />
This highly anticipated wellness hotspot has<br />
brought together a mix of like-minded retail<br />
and hospitality businesses in one South<br />
Town spot. Six character buildings, which<br />
date back as far as 1880, leave behind their<br />
past as places for trades (from black smith<br />
to welder) to take on a bright new future<br />
where yoga and natural wine rule, among<br />
a few indulgences. Noteworthy openings<br />
include Two Raw Sisters, Barefoot Eatery<br />
by Greenroots Juicery and The Great<br />
Pastry Shop.<br />
To celebrate the opening of The Welder<br />
(22-26 Welles Street) in Christchurch,<br />
Well-Fest will take over the place on<br />
2 November. The day-long festival not only<br />
coincides with the final of the Rugby World<br />
Cup but the opening of yakitori restaurant<br />
Bar Yoku. Former All Black Andy Ellis has<br />
teamed up with the dynamic duo behind<br />
Sister Kong, Sam and Sally Hooper, to add<br />
some serious Japanese flair – and plenty of<br />
wagyu – to the precinct.
