Three hundred pickle jars hang from the roof of Wellington’s newest restaurant, Pickle Eating House and Bar, which opened at the weekend.

On the corner of Majoribanks Street and Kent Terrace, Pickle is in the former premises of Mexican restaurant Pan De Muerto which has moved to Tory Street.

Pickle co-owner Bryce Mason, says the new restaurant is about serving modern, fresh seasonal food with a distinctly Kiwi flavour with a menu designed to share.

“We have snacks, sides, small plates and large plates so people can order as little or as much as they want,” Mason says.

And Pickle serves its chips with a Wellington vibe. They come in a cone shaped from copies of Capital Times. Diners can have a second read.

  • Making housing affordable 27/03/2013 10:06:00 a.m. With home ownership rates falling and many struggling to play higher rental costs, making housing affordable has risen to the top of the political agenda.
    Joel Pringle, campaign manager for Australians for Affordable Housing, and Charles Waldegrave, from the Family Centre, will address a meeting as part of a public discussion on housing at Thistle Hall on April 8.
    Waldegrave will look at the human faces of housing unaffordability while Pringle will suggest ways to build public support for affordable housing policies in New Zealand.
  • Food to the rescue 27/03/2013 10:06:00 a.m.
    Food rescue organisation, Kaibosh, has been named supreme winner at the TrustPower National Community Awards.
    The Wellington based service group collaborates with food retailers and producers to rescue surplus food that is good enough to eat, but not good enough to sell, preventing it from being discarded into landfills.
    Since its inception in 2008 Kaibosh has rescued over 285,000 meals – that’s 100 tonnes of food redistributed to where it’s needed most.
