Hey guys, thought this would be the best place for it and couldn't find anything else related so I'll give this a go.
Essentially, what I'm after is recommendations on cool things to do and nice places to eat in Wellington. I'm coming down with my partner as a surprise for her Birthday from 29th-31st of October and staying in downtown Wellington. I'm familiar with a few haunts and whatnot but it's been pretty much 18 months since I was there last, and when I am there it tends to be almost whistle stop in nature. As such, I hardly get time to go out and do much around town.
I have a rough idea on what I want to do down there and I've planned and budgeted accordingly. Ideally after some good quick eateries or food places/bars etc for the Friday night as we'll most likely be making a night out of it. Then will be doing a bit of shopping for the missus on the Saturday - I'm after a real good quality restaurant for the Saturday night so any ideas on that would be appreciated too. Sunday will be a bit of a lazy day I'm guessing but I'm just wanting to see if there is any other cool little places you Wellingtonians can pass on that we can fill our time with until afternoon/evening before heading back to the airport.
All suggestions are welcome, and thanks in advance!
