 | |  |  | Art Center Foodstalls: Weekend Splendour | Tip Rating:    Satisfaction:   |  |  | |  |
It is a pity that the foodstalls at the Arts Centre operate only on the weekends because the food is delicious and cheap, and you get it fast ;-) There is such a lot on offer, with food from so many different countries, ie Korea, China, Cambodia, Thailand, India, Lebanon, Greece, Germany (Black Forest foodstall with great wafers) and even Slovakia. The latter is the clear specialist in delicious desserts, with palacinka and liwance... There is also NZ food available, for example baked potatoes. The Greek souvlaki are the greatest hit. Already the smell in the air is sooooooo Greek - nothing compares to Dimitris' food. I have tasted a lot of souvlaki and kebabs in the city, he is the clear number one. It is just not the right thing to chose if you are very hungry. The queues are long, and you get waiting numbers... The solution: Go to Dimitris' restaurant in the city during the week, it is in Colombo Street, just some steps from Cathedral Square, between the Camera House and McDonald's. Enjoy your meal in the big courtyard under the trees. See website for complete list of foodstalls. In the market area are some more stalls with Italian breads, German smallgoods and produce.
The chicken combo of the Korean foodstall: chicken kebabs with rice, kimchi and a soybean pancake. A little adjusted to South Asian and European tastes because you would not find kebabs in Korea and especially no peanut sauce but the kimchi and the pancake are absolutely authentic. BTW It tastes much nicer without peanut sauce as this kills all other flavours, so just say it when you order. Say "Annyong haseo" instead of "Hello" and the chef will be delighted... ;-) Theme: Eclectic/InternationalPrice: less than US$10 » Currency ConverterComparison: least expensiveAddress: Worcester St./Rolleston Ave/Hereford StDirections: A short walk from Cathedral Square, opposite Canterbury Museum and Botanic Gardens.Website: http://www.artscentre.org.nz/Weekend-market/marketresults.asp?cat=Food%20Fair
