Kai to go


On the corner of the main highway into Kohukohu is this sign on one of the shops saying "Kai to go". Kai is the Maori word for food also meaning to eat, consume, feed or partake so in other words they cook pizza, chips, fried fish etc. This town is one of my favourite little places to visit.

Linking up with Weekend reflections and the Weekend roundup.

What a fine street photo of this corner. The sign is attractive, and thank you for the translation.

Great name for a shop - it just sort of rolls off the tongue really nicely :)

I wouldn't have picked that as NZ! Very different to the landscapes and street scenes I think of...#WeekendReflection

Pizza would suit me.

Kai sounds so much like a Japanese word. Kai to go sounds like the town wants to evict the store when I first read the phrase. Now it is all clear after finishing reading your post. What a nice township image!

Hello Amy, All the pictures I see of New Zealand, are so beautiful, just like this one. Reading your profile. you mention you like winter. I live in New Hampshire, USA and we have very cold winters and get a lot of snow. Have a good week. Dawn

Nice picture, Amy. I'll have fish and chips and mushy peas. I think your pick would be my favorite also. Does anyone in N.Z. sell Poboys? They are a Southern US favorite, shrimp or crawfish, sometimes oyster. All battered and fried. Google comes up showing so really yummy ones.

Even the garden outside looks great - that would always make me try there first.

Very quiet, a Ghost Town. No need to stand in a queue waiting for food I guess. 🙃

I must have been there on the way to the Ferry but I can't recall it. My memories of so many places are fading now which makes me feel so sad.
