Food Style? Contemporary European

Relatively new to the scene, the Arborist took over from Eclipse at the Trinity Hotel and introduced a bunch of quality burgers and good beer, and have recently opened their rooftop bar which boasts the title of Wellington's tallest rooftop venue. It's so close to our work, and we had a free spot, so we decided to pop in for a hastily organised lunch.

Burger: Ba Ba Baaa Ba Ba Bar Lamb


Two Harringtons hickory-smoked lamb patties with pickled cucumber, secret sauce and double cheese in a Pandoro brioche bun, with fries
Despite its relatively small size, it was full of flavour - dominated by the cheese and medium-rare meat. Any bigger and this would have hurt. The brioche bun was impressive, being soft on the top and toasted perfectly on the underside. Solid effort, and a good time if you like cheese and meat.

I score this an eight out of ten.
