It used to be a butcher’s here long time ago that is why
they call the café “The Butchers Café”. The shop front is quite small but they
have a bigger area at the back. The furniture is deliberately mismatched but it
adds charm to the place. The food is very good - if you like old- fashioned egg
sandwiches, cakes and scones like I do. They also have the trendy High Tea
every third Wednesday of the month.
I just shared this
beautiful raspberry framington (similar to lamington with more body to it ) with my friend Julie when we went there for
coffee last week. Here in the country (Patumahoe - 45 minutes from Auckland) they still have several dairy farms around the area –
and 'a dollop of cream' means our framington came generously laced with freshly
whipped cream a size of a tennis ball.
