Grill Meats Beer

After a long nap for Florence we had planned an evening in Wellington proper that would show us all the things we love. As soon as we stepped out of the car it started to rain, which turned into a ton of rain, flying sideways due to the extreme winds. We were soaked within minutes. We ventured first to a game board cafe to pick up some souvenirs and then to this restaurant on Cuba Street.

I had heard a lot about Cuba Street being amazing and full of culture, and maybe it was just the weather, but it seemed like just another street full of restaurants. Anyway, by the time we made it to Grill Meats Beer we were soaked and I was laughing hysterically at how the night was going and trying to convince Florence that it was okay because we can do "brave things". I'm fairly certain the hostess at the restaurant took pity on us and just made space for us to eat. We started at the bar and then moved to a table. The staff were incredible, the beers great and the food fine. Florence ate a whole kiddie plate of fish and chips so that was a relief.Read more
