Again, I read about an eating place, Fergburger which served NZ beef burgers priced NZD10 and up. Actually I forgot about it until I walked passed it and saw the place crowded with people! The burger was quite a huge one – good for sharing if you just want to snack. I love it! It was really delicious and juicy! The price of the burger was certainly not cheap, but definitely worth a try! 
The huge burger!!
Comparing the bigger cities such as Wellington and Christchurch, I liked Queenstown best! The compact downtown area of 1.5sqm was buzzling with people and activities which we didn’t see much of in the other cities. The warmth from the sun was definitely a plus ;)

Kingsgate Hotel – NZD70/night from wotif “Secret Deal”. We were given free upgrade to its top floor (4th floor) 2-storey 2-bedroom apartment. The bedrooms upstairs included a queen bed with ensuite (bath only) and 2 single beds with separate bath. There were 2 toilets, one upstairs (shared) and another in the common area downstairs. We were in Room 475 which had a great view of the mountains and lake! Though the room furnishing was old, it was clean and kitchen was well-equipped. The only thing missing in the apartment was the washing facility which one could do at the guest laundry for NZD3 per washing/drying load. The hotel was about 10min walk to downtown, and offered free parking, newspaper as well as spa pool (give it a miss). Though the price was well worth the amount we paid, I felt that the 2-bedroom apartment was too big for just 2 of us lah.. hehe

haha..interestingly, we also stayed in the same hotel when we were in queenstown! great view huh!!
Yes, it's a great place! However, I read in the TA forum about people lamenting the uphill/downhill walk.. but that was so negligible!
Fergburger! It's something Carl's Junior cant compare to the Big Al.
Agree, Edna!
