Where to Taste New Zealand Crayfish

"Tucked at the end of a remote West Coast road near the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it village of Haas, this red caravan run by sisters Dayna and Nicole Buchanan sits terraced along the water’s edge with picnic tables overlooking the Tasman Sea. In summer the air carries drying seaweed and garlic-butter scents while Fiordland crested penguins dot the shoreline; despite occasional highway closures the sisters embrace their isolation, having learned to cook on the job. They serve simple, soulful kaimoana—sweet spiny rock lobster quickly steamed, finished on the grill and dressed with lemon and butter—delivering the humble, end-of-the-world magic road trippers hope to find." - Hillary Eaton
