Waffles, cream and chocolate sauce. What could go wrong?

It seems Christchurch takes to waffles as moths do to a flame.

Akaroa’s Waffle Haus has branched out to the Garden City and hit record numbers from the jump, trebling the Akaroa store's best day of sales on its opening day.

The brunch spot has several claims to fame including 30 milkshake flavours, Brussels and Liege waffles with a range of toppings, and popular Mojo coffee and Deep South icecreams.

Have you been yet? Would you give this a try?

Hey neighbours,

A multimillion-dollar upgrade will go ahead for the compost plant causing the infamous Bromley stench.

The foul stench has plagued the Christchurch suburb for years and left some residents on the brink of selling up. Others claim the plant is responsible for exacerbating health issues.

About $21.5m will be spent to enclose and upgrade the Living Earth plant to limit the odour spreading into the public.

Do you think this will help to rid Bromley of the infamous pong?
