Sometimes - you just have to be 'pro-active' or just damn lucky!!  

Of course there is yet another backstory!! The Roosters are a very prominent and VERY vocal feature in The Cook Islands!! The crow ALL and I do mean A L L night long!!!  :(  

In any case - someone decided to make a play on that and name their Cafe after the noisy Rooster's!! Having dropped some friends to the Airport we decided to treat ourselves for a lunch meal out!! Typical Cook Islands - they are open from 8.30am to 2pm!  So we sat down and perused the menu which did NOT list garlic bread - and cheeky me asked the waiter if they do one at all!! 

Yuss - we have a winner!!

The bread was surprisingly light to eat!! We both could easily have had one more slice each! The flavor was divine! It could  have had a sprinkling of herbs - and as all things in the Cook islands - they to would have to be shipped in . . .  so understandable. 

The only major detraction was the white napkin placed under the bread!! Bummer but for that It would have been a perfect rating!!  

Upon paying our bill - I spotted the Brick Pizza oven in the middle of the kitchen - and asked if they still use it for making their pizzas - alas - they use it to bake all of their home made breads only - fresh every day!! Nice!!
