Christchurch


It's third time lucky for this Christchurch institution, which reopened in this industrial-style warehouse on the CBD outskirts in 2013, after its previous locations were damaged in both the 2010 and 2011 quakes. Locals flock here for solid pizza and pasta dishes and a casual, family friendly atmosphere.
