Welly favourite Chocolate Fish to close

What the f##k! How can the WGTN city council be so crap!!!

Brilliant. Another iconic part of Wellington disappears under the “evil she lords” rule!! Say good bye to another iconic wellington destination and say hello to more concrete car parks. Say good bye to a little productive thriving happy piece of our economy - isnt that what its meant to be about?

You could totally argue that if it wasn’t for the success of the chocolate fish then the council wouldn’t be in a situation to EXPLOIT and lay claim to a successful Seatoon in this way in the first place. Its a bloody shame and another good reason not to vote for that heinous woman *cough* mayor of Wellington.

Fishing in Ngawi

On Saturday Tim, Gavin and I went fishing at Ngawi. It was quite brilliant in that we saw a shark, a couple of seals, and Tim even caught a baby Blue Cod. I’m quite looking forward to getting into this whole fishing thing…

Xiheyaju Restaurant Beijing

During a visit to China last year I had lunch at the Xiheyaju Restaurant in Beijing. This was without a doubt the best Chinese food I have ever had. A group of us dined in a private room and I enjoyed some of the finest food I think Beijing has on offer. If you ever make it to Beijing this is a must - it is also in walking distance from the NZ ambassadors house where enjoyed a cocktail party the night before.

Salami and halloumi pizza

I felt like treating Amber tonight so I made her Salami and halloumi pizza. I found the recipe on the BBC food site which I reccomend.

Kill Bill

The restaurant in Kill Bill is based on ā€œGonpachiā€ in Nishi-Azabu. Although 99% of the fight scene was filmed on a set apprently one or two scences were really filmed there.
You’ve got to love Tarantino!!!

It is not too far from Roppongi subway station to walk. Take Roppongi-dori street toward Shibuya direction. The restaurant is at the foot of the down slope on your right at the corner of Nishi-Azabu intersection. I’d say it might be a 10 minutes walk or so.
