Indecision is the worst thing that will happen to you at Clipper, where the reinvented classic cocktails are made by bartenders who really care about their craft, a bit of a rarity in this town. We suggest something from the list of seasonal “bangers” such as the tomato martini, rhubarb negroni sour, or banana caramel old fashioned. There’s a full vermouth list, grilled cheese sandwiches and, as an added bonus, you can order more substantial feeds from the adjacent Ponsonby Rd restaurants. (Hello, Ockhee.)

Welcome to the new issue of Metro! The Top 50 restaurants in Auckland! What are New Zealand’s mad scientists up to? Ed Hillary and the (or perhaps a) Yeti! We catch up with the affable Jack Tame! As well as the 3-bodied Jess Hong. A studio visit with sculptor Yona Lee! Sam Brooks derides the dearth of arts criticism! What are the Take Out Kids up to when they’re not on TV? And more, much more.
