Review: The Birkenhead Restaurant with the Confusing Punctuation

Eight.Two, or eightpointtwo, or possibly even 8.2 is a beautiful bistro-style restaurant on Auckland's Northern Shore which I visited last week before attending a musical performance at the nearby Slipp Inn. How you spell the restaurant doesn't really matter as they don't appear to have a website, but how you spell the pub is extremely important – the double 'P' removing any possibility you might mistake it for a sexual reference (although a quick glance around the clientele upon arrival will do an equally good job of banishing erotic thoughts).
