Lunch at Twist some more, Wellington

We went to Wellington on Friday to stay at Dunstone Country House but, on the way there, we decided to have some lunch at Twist some more, which is one of the best places to eat when in Wellington
It’s a lovely roomy restaurant with lots of space inside and out, good for both winter and summer
Simple but well cooked food is always on the menu - Lots of things to tempt one
and some delicious desserts - we do our best to ignore them
plus a good menu for children
and it is a great place to stop off for breakfast
Some people chose to sit inside
but, as it was a beautiful late summer's day, we chose to sit out
Chef Johan van Schalkwyk and Lynne discuss menus and food
Lynne asked for the chicken wrap to be served without the tortilla wrap if possible, as she wanted more of a salad and this was the superb result. Crispy spicy deep fried thyme encrusted chicken, very moist, served with a good avocado tomato and brie salad with a chilli jam cream sauce.
John had the dish that Twist is famous for, their Wild Boar apple and sage burger topped with onion marmalade and gorgonzola sauce. He has had this before and probably will again as he enjoys it very much. He had it without the bun and manfully resisted most of the excellent chips - so difficult when they are THAT good!
