I had been thinking about this amazing restaurant for 7.5 years before I had the opportunity to return, and it was just as delicious, if not more so, as the first time.
Fleur's Place is nothing short of awesome. It's off the beaten path in the town of Moeraki, and the last time I was here, I was en route to Dunedin. This time, we stayed nearby, toured Omaru during the day, and then headed to Fleur's Place for dinner.
The building itself is very unassuming, but the grounds are beautiful. We were there in April, and there were a ton of flowers blooming, framing a lovely view of the ocean. Inside, all over the walls, there are messages of love written in pen (I'm not kidding), which adds to the vibe of a laid-back, super cool, welcoming kitchen.
The food is nothing short of amazing. If you have the ability, get the bacon wrapped cod (it's delightful). We enjoyed a fresh catch of the day - a trio - that was unbelievably fresh. Wine list is impressive. They have cocktails. Dessert was excellent.
Do yourself a favor, and come here. Like what many people have said on Yelp, it's a wonderful spot.
Fleur is also a fantastic person, and it's obvious that she is respected and loved by her staff. Everyone working there was super kind, very accommodating, and just genuinely good souls.
This spot should be at the top of your list for the South Island if you visit.
