Burglary not enough to stop Gear Homestead re-opening
An experienced Wellington restaurateur's efforts to breathe new life into a historic Porirua homestead have been dealt a cruel blow, burgled less than a fortnight out from its re-opening.
Michael Hollings, who co-owns Wellington institutions Chow, The Library bar, The Little Waffle Shop and Le Samourai, recently took on the challenge of transforming Gear Homestead into Gear Eatery and Bar.
On Saturday, about $7000 worth of tools.
Hollings, however, is determined not to let the theft stop him and is still planning to re-open May 7.
