Botswana Butchery

After an exhausting afternoon's rafting, we were booked into what appears to be the best restaurant in Queenstown - Botswana Butchery. We hadn't thought far enough ahead to bring smart clothes, so turned up in t-shirts and shorts. But Queenstown's a pretty informal kinda place, and in fact we weren't the only ones so attired - although a few people had put on long trousers and shirts.

As the name suggests, meat is the main order of the day here. We started with duck livers (me) and rabbit risotto (Nicola), then both went for Wakanui eye fillet, with pinot noir & thyme sauce (me) green peppercorn sauce (Nicola). Were they good? They were bloody marvellous! We (I) wanted pudding, but by then we were stuffed (the starters had been quite rich), so I had a coffee and we called it a night there.

  1. It seems that ever since you moved to NZ your life has been one endless holiday. :D

  2. But there's so many places to see, and things to do! And we have been here for 2½ years now.
