When is a Quesadilla an Enchilada?

While we were in Paihia we ran across a cafe with quesadilla and nachos on the menu. Aha! we said. Let's see what Kiwis think of these. We ordered one of each and were pretty surprised. The nachos were a heap of bagged chips like Doritos, covered with sour cream, chili beans and sliced avocado. The quesadilla was a flour tortilla rolled with chili beans, topped with sour cream. I don't think they know that "queso" means cheese. Everything tasted great, just not what we expected.

We have to wait until Friday to submit an offer on the space we have chosen. The owners have an offer right now which will expire then. Things work a little differently here, and we are relying on our realtor team to guide us along.

We have posted more photos of the west coast of the North Island with beautiful black sand beaches. T&C were looking for waves, but were a little disappointed.
