Kumara on the Westcoast - a sleepy place with a glorious past.  Now probably best known as the starting point (Kumara Beach)  of the annual Coast to Coast race.  We stopped for dinner and sadly no entrée ala garlic bread - but then spotted it as being available as a side dish - duly ordered and it came indeed as a side dish to the mains.  Nice ciabatta style bread, plenty of flavour and colour (herbs). crispy on the outside and fresh soft moist on the inside. The "arrangement" must have suffered in transit from kitchen to table. Pity the paper napkin placed under the garlic bread.  This would have been superb as a entrée - as a side dish it was just to much for one person and it was duly shared with the others in our party.
