I ran some errands in town today, so I stopped in at Ti Kouka café (upstairs @ 76 Willis Street, Wellington) for lunch. The wait staff are friendly and perky, and the food and coffee are always good. The waitress recommended the chef's special which was fresh figs (from his auntie's garden in Nelson), walnuts glazed with brown sugar, on a rocket and red onion salad with balsamic reduction and goat's cheese cream. Yes, I started to drool at the description too. So I ordered it and it was Magically Delicious. Seriously. The phrase "it melts in your mouth" may get overused something wicked but it was true here; and I made the right call in sitting at one of the booths so that I didn't fall out of my chair when I swooned. It was that good.
... I need to plant a fig tree in the garden now.
