bottle of Vietnamese beer to re-create lazy nights in Saigon. The bean-sprout-laden

Etrusco at the Savoy
ITALIAN $$$
( 03-477 3737;
www.etrusco.co.nz
;
8a Moray Pl; mains $17-21; 5.30pm-late)
NZ has very
few dining rooms to match the Edwardian elegance of the Savoy, with its moulded ceil-
ings, stained-glass crests, brass chandeliers, green Ionian columns and fabulously over-
the-top lamps. Pizza and pasta might seem like an odd fit, but Etrusco's deliciously rustic
dishes absolutely hold their own.
Nova Cafe
CAFE $$$
( 03-479 0808;
www.novadunedin.co.nz
; 29 The Octagon; breakfast $15-18, lunch $18-24, dinner
$18-34; 7am-11pm Mon-Fri, 8.30am-10pm Sat & Sun)
Not surprisingly, this extension of the
art gallery has a stylish look about it. Start the day with the interesting breakfast selec-
tions, dabble in some Asian flavours for lunch, then finish the day with bistro-style grills
and a glass of wine.
Miga
KOREAN $$$
( 03-477 4770;
www.migadunedin.co.nz
; 4 Hanover St; mains $16-39; 11am-2pm & 5-10pm
Mon-Sat)
Settle into a booth at this attractive brick-lined eatery, and order claypot rice or
noodle dishes from the extensive menu. Otherwise go for broke and cook a Korean bar-
becue right at your table.
Scotia
MODERN SCOTTISH $$$
( 03-477 7704;
www.scotiadunedin.co.nz
; 199 Stuart St; mains $18-32; 4pm-late Tue-Sun)
Occupying a cosy heritage townhouse, Scotia toasts all things Scottish with a wall full of
single-malt whisky and hearty fare such as smoked salmon and Otago hare. The two
Scottish Robbies - Burns and Coltrane - look down approvingly on a menu that also in-
cludes haggis and whisky-laced pâté.
Paasha
TURKISH $$$
