Duke Carvell's Cafe in Wellington.
The capital is planning a culinary invasion of New Zealand's biggest city.
Some of Wellington's best-known bars and restaurants will be at a "pop up city" at Silo Park on June 25 and 26 to show off some of the best of the capital's food and drink, including craft beer
and bespoke cocktails.
Auckland Chamber of Commerce chief executive Michael Barnett reckoned the Wellingtonians could be shooting themselves in the foot.
"They might discover there is a real audience here with real spending power and the danger is, they will want to stay."
Positively Wellington Tourism chief executive David Perks, however, insists his team will hold their own in the City of Sails.
