SPQR Restaurant

We went here for dinner tonight, arriving by coach bus...crazy as we were going my buddy Kareem went off beat-boxing (making music like rap noises with his mouth) and it was insane! It was unbelievable we were all looking at each other wondering "where did that come from?" Upon arriving at the restaurant there were roughly 20 kiwi's just staring at our huge bus take over the scene... undoubtedly thinking similarly to the bar post I wrote earlier, "where are all these Americans coming from?" It's a great spot with amazing wine (so I hear) and the food is great. I got the organic salad for an entrĂ©e (appetizer), and chicken with mash (potatoes) as my main (main meal). Dinner to the Kiwi's is much different than the get in-get out style we may be more accustomed to in America as this meal took well over 2.5 hours from start to finish. It was cool tho cuz I got to talk with some prior study abroad students who now live in New Zealand and have great advice for us new guys. About $55 is all it takes for a great meal in a real interesting part of town.
