Botswana Butchery
Creative carnivorous concoctions at this much loved temple to sublime meat
With granite bartops, leather couches, roaring fireplaces and crisp linen tablecloths, you’d be forgiven for thinking this sister restaurant to the Auckland original perhaps oozes a bit too much masculinity. But there’s a lightness of touch to the decor and the food to this upscale Queenstown spot. Menus can be matched to wines from Central Otago from the 1800 bottle strong cellar and, although the Canterbury Angus grass fed fillets and ribeyes are outstanding, there’s (slightly) lighter options in the form of duck pancakes and Northland snapper.
