Little Neighbourhood
cuisinesPizza, Child Friendly, Street Food Style

Little Neighbourhood is a central Christchurch beer garden and eatery with some of the best burgers and pizza in town. All their pizzas are made with premium “00” flour and are yeast-raised for 24 hours. They also cater to those with dietary requirements, offering a gluten free crust option if you are that way inclined. So, why is it one of the most affordable restaurants in Christchurch? Well, for $12 you can try the taste of truffle in their truffled mushroom and potato croquettes with roasted garlic aioli. If you’re really hungry you need to order the half a kilo of chicken wings which is only $13. Head down on Wednesday for quiz night and try one of their burgers on their new menu.

At this Thai restaurant, you’ll get all the classic Thai dishes you’re used to, from Pad Thai to Green Curry, and you’ll also get some that maybe you haven’t heard of such as Pad Pug Ruam, which is a delicious plate of stir-fried seasonal vegetables with Thai seasoning and sauces. This Thai food not only tastes good but also looks beautiful, it’s always a hearty feast filled with fun and fiery flavours of Thai culinary creations. Erawan Thai allows you to BYO so you can save a few coins if you need to by bringing your own choice of alcohol. Plus, if you just want a night in but delicious Thai food, you can order a takeaway and enjoy this in the comfort of your own home. Bliss.

Experience Vietnamese street food at Le Xom, this restaurant has two different menus, for those looking for an affordable restaurant in Christchurch you can eat from the Street Vendor Fare menu with dishes starting from $9.90, try the “Nha Trang” Cevinche, a fresh salmon cube served with red onion, fresh coriander, lemongrass, lime citrus, lettuce and peanuts. Drool. Would also recommend the Mongolian Fish Roti. However, if it’s just been payday, try the dishes from the Glamorous menu, everything from Deng Deng Balado, which is a caramelized short rib of beef with kaffir lime chilli, lemon, and basil, to cashew nut and tempura chicken served with sweet chilli jam sauce, carrot, and red capsicum.
