Cool, familiar, excellent food |
105 Vivian Street Wellington 6001 New Zealand +64 4 384 6466 |
People say this winner of the Corbans wine and food challenge is simply fantastic. Described as medium sized, familiar, cosy-groovy, white-table clothed and wooden-chaired, it features a pleasant indoor garden conservatory and modern bar. Renowned for its simple, fresh seafood cooked by the chef with respect. Try the luscious salmon lightly cooked and swimming in a delicate sauce. Good varied wine list and remains reasonably priced despite recent culinary successes. Review © 2007, Wcities |
