Another gourmet
surprise which made me think that even the smallest, most remote town
in New Zealand has at least one quality ressy. Blue Ice is pretty
upmarket and caters for the older richer Franz Josef tourist by making
a tentative venture into classical cooking. As everywhere here,
the wine is fine and the food is fresh and simple. The coast is
visible from the top of the glacier so it's no surprise the seafood is
worth sampling but the menu is short. Not a problem since most people
are just passing through anyway, even so they'll remember Blue Ice with
favour.
