Lunch with magnificant views
Peppertree officially opened its doors to the public in January 2020 and has been steadily growing ever since. The restaurant located on the second floor of Delta Towers along Waiyaki Way in Westlands is a botanical wonderland with amazing Latin-Asian vibes that enchant you from the minute you walk in. It was a gloomy Wednesday afternoon at the restaurant, but plenty of light still filtered in through the windows, and we enjoyed the view out across Westlands. The interior is aesthetically pleasing and totally Instagram-worthy with artistic mural walls, industrial lights, appealing furniture, and plants all around the facility. The ground floor has a rustic, marble, and botanical vibe, with lantern-like chandeliers in woven hangings donning the ceiling, fresh green leafy hanging plants, marbled countertops, fairy lights, and semi-circular grey cushioned seats with fine polished wooden round tables and golden metallic seats with navy blue cushions. It is like being on a page out of a Disney movie, with soothing cultural music playing from the speakers. The restaurant has additional seating space upstairs and the ambiance is impeccable. In fact, we deliberately chose to sit upstairs so that we could soak in all the beauty wetlands has to offer. It has an indoor, and outdoor feel. With navy blue with a rustic vibe, fairy lights entwined in the ceiling, and, lots of well-placed fresh plants. The balcony is covered in cantilevers to shield diners from harsh climates and to allow them to enjoy the outdoor breeze without worry. My friend and I ordered a chicken salad and I must admit, it was well done and presented. The meals are affordable and the portions and presentation make every coin totally worth it. They not only offer to dine-in services but also takeaways and delivery.
