Whats a good place to eat? no shops in the CBD - going out to Petone and lower hutt you will find 3 in close proximity - unfortunately fins and fangs shut down a number of years ago.

A number? Almost a decade! Sad, they were great from what I remember. Didn't they have a huge tank with a remora in it? Or was that somewhere else?

tinytawnykitten Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 The Pet Centre in Lower Hutt is great and I think the public transport to get out there is pretty easy on the train. Just get off at Melling. PLease someone tell me if I have that wrong! As for food, depends on what you want, there are some fantastic cafes and restaurants in Wellington, just depends on your budget and what sort of place you're after. If you head up Cuba Street you'll be spoilt for choice - look out for Midnight Espresso, Floraditas, Fidels, Ernesto, the list goes on. What are you into, other than fish of course?

tinytawnykitten Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Wellington Zoo has a good few reptiles too. The Ibis is right in the centre of town. Te Papa is worth a look and is only a 10 minute walk away. Which day are you here? I work from home and would be happy to drive you to somewhere if it is a pain to get there on public transport.
