Licence to grill: Dunedin restaurant favoured by 007 set to re-open after fire
A dozen workers are putting the final touches on top Dunedin bistro re-opening after a fire forced its closure nine months ago.
The blaze ripped through No 7 Balmac, a popular restaurant in the upmarket suburb of Maori Hill, on August 18.
It is set to open its doors again on Thursday – fingers crossed – says owner Katrina Toovey, who started the business about a decade ago.
The restaurant made headlines when James Bond actor Daniel Craig and his Oscar-winning wife Rachel Weisz dined at the restaurant in 2014, when Weisz was in Dunedin to film The Light Between Oceans.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
