There are a number of eating places on the Lakefront at lake Tekapo - from your traditional quick and easy diary type place  (and some take-away places) to the more formal traditional sit down restaurants. We decided to start with Reflections restaurant that offered a good place to sit down and (if you are lucky enough to get the window seat) offers stunning views across the meadow and adjacent lake front - complete with the Church of the Good Shepherd.

The garlic bread arrived in short time and was presented in a foot long boat shaped plate. The bread itself was a very well baked and was more like a crusty baguette with good garlic flavor. Despite the crusty exterior on the main part of the bread the inside was still soft-ish and easily edible. All of the Garlic butter has melted through the bread and was fully absorbed - no oily residue on your fingers.

The absence of a hint of green herb (trad. parsley) was a detractor from what would have been a good presented and flavored garlic bread.

Very nearly the perfect bread.
