Zero81 - at Kingston Beach. Tasty food, good service and a lovely Autumn evening.

A simple, but delicious dinner at place called Number 8 Wire in Rotorua.

Ordering is via tablet at the table, presumably keeping staff costs down.

About 15 mins after ordering a waiter appeared with an extra glass of wine and said “Sorry it’s a bit slow. This one is on us.”

We’d not said anything. Nor were we expecting food that swiftly. Excellent service.

The predictable Miss H went for creamy pasta.


Mrs H had the ribs:


I selected the venison:



And a side of greens to share.


Nothing flash about the place. Just wholesome, delicious food.

Worth considering if in Rotorua.

Dining by proxy. Given current circumstances we could not attend but my proxy says the meal was fabulous, one of the best ever. Have eaten at several Rohan places in UK such as L’Enclume etc and was very impressed.
