For those feeling a little fancy, Pravda offers lavish, european bistro-style dining just off Customhouse Quay. The warming winter menu includes decadent chocolate truffle figs, and Pappardelle with duck, hazlenut and Valdeon cheese crumble. Not to mention the consistently great service, and amazing cheese platter.
The speed with which Pravda’s cheese scones sell put the proverbial hot cakes to shame: ready to go in brown paper bags before 9am, they’re often sold out by noon. They’re so popular, Pravda’s pastry chef often shares his scone secrets at workshops during Wellington On A Plate – tickets to which also sell out.
