By Kiwicat | Feb 2, 2021
Christchurch boasts the only tram restaurant in New Zealand and while that alone guarantees you a unique experience, there is also so much more waiting for you.

That meant a trip to the supermarket which is easy enough, but once there I discovered that these items (apart from
