We had planned a trip to our Northern Island - only to having to re-arrange the iternary, due to reasons beyond our original intentions.   Cut a long bread short - we ended up staying in Taihape - Gumboot captial of New Zealand and I dear say of the world!
The ordered Garlic bread arrived in extra good time and was nicely stacked on the plate! It was solidly baked through and very crusty ( I do miss the soft fleshy part of the bread).  It has been buttered on both sides of the slices and as you can see from the photo was a cross cut baguette.  There was more then enough for two people and we polished of the Garlic bread with no trouble.  Sadly it lacked a certain garlic flavour - something a bit of a no no when wanting to eat Garlic bread!  Oddly enough, once the bread had cooled down to being - well cold - it increased the flavor.  It also lacked a touch of green herbs.
