BigBob Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 Hey Guys,Where is the best place that you have eaten that caters for the serious bodybuilder?I finally came out of the dungeon and got out with some friends on Wednesday night. :jail: We went to the most awesome bodybuilder-friendly restaurant I've seen.It's a place called Wildfire, down in the viaduct. We plumped for the barbeque and they just keep bringing meat!!! I put a little bit of salad on my plate from the sides, then just grabbed as much beef and chicken as I could as they cycled round.It was a really nice place with great service (although it does get a bit noisey in there!) and I left on a protein high!

Marcus Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 I've been there bigbob & I totally agree. I sat there & ate just meat all night until I couldn't move. Nice as aye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wynton Posted March 2, 2006 Report Share Posted March 2, 2006 For restaurants I agree can't beat Wildfire.For a meal on the run the kebab shop in takapuna mall is awesome. You get 2 big scoops of rice and a couple big scoops of chicken all for $7.50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pseudonym Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Ooh, good topic! Think I'll have to make a trip to the viaduct! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBob Posted March 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 We should get a group of NZBB's together and head down there - see if we can exhaust their supplies in one night... :pfft: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazyone Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Whoa.. thanks for the heads-up on Wildfire. Whats their dessert menu like? :pfft: :pfft: I've also heard good things about the Angus Steak House, corner of Albert & Swanson Streets in Aucks... haven't tried it yet though.

BigBob Posted March 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 Well lazyone, the dessert trolley did look quite appealing, but I got distracted by some more beef coming past my nose...Angus steak house, huh? I feel a weekend dinner out with my wife on the cards... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varven Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 Been meaning to make it down to Wildfire for a wh ile now and never got around to it. How much should I budget to spend for a couple ? For meals on the go, I usually stop at one of the kebab places on Queen st, ( Lord of the Kebabs is my fav.), I get them to replace most of the salads and a large bit of the rice with more meat. You can get quite a decent High protein, low carb meal for like$8.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBob Posted March 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 The kebab joints seem to be the best value for high protein...I think the wildfire barbeque was $30/40 per person. Pretty expensive, but pace yourself and you can get good value!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frogie2001 Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 friendly restaurants that i have found so far arewildfire - BrazillianGenges - mongolianand kebab shop, twice the chickenbut in all honesty if you go to any restaurant and are sensible with the portion sizes , roast potatoe instead of chips, etc and extra meat sometimes. etcgood point on wildfire, protein hangover. give genges a go though it's essentially the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
