Fire and Emergency NZ crews were called to a fire at a building housing a Dunedin restaurant this morning.

Black smoke could be seen in the area, but it was not yet known how much damage there was to Brazen restaurant in Filleul St. 

An Otago Daily Times photographer at the scene said smoke was coming from the second floor of the property and from a large industrial chimney.

A Fenz spokesman said four appliances – two from Dunedin central and one each from Willowbank and one from Roslyn – initially attended about 8am, while a command unit arrived separately.

The fire happened on the top floor of the two-storey building and Fenz were trying to keep it under control, he said.
