The most delicious yet affordable chicken, mainly for takeaway but you can also eat there. Sometimes there's live music. They also deliver to your door on those rainy days when you just can't leave the house (use Order In). Or take your meal and one of their picnic blankets across to Chris Saunders Park to watch the birdlife and sunset.

This place is on the 32nd floor and it rotates! While you eat your semi-gourmet meal, you can watch the scene change from harbour to sunset to city to beachfront... Well worth it for something different. There's also a bar on the top if you want to pop in for a cocktail only.
