👍👍 As someone who doesn't usually opt for vegan options, this is hands down the best vegan food I've ever had in my life. So flavourful - everything was delicious! Lovely staff, as well. A must try!

👍👍 A hidden gem in a suburb . Both the meal and the service were outstanding. This is where you should go if you're looking for authentic Thai food in Auckland. Booking in advance is advised because it's frequently very busy.

Futomaki Town
Restaurant
👍👍 Addicted to those pork rinds they sell. Came here for lunch and had Sisig but unfortunately I didn’t get any shots. But it was delicious. And they’re very friendly there, too. If you don’t like Filipino food, I don’t have time for you.

Penang Street Food

👍👍 Finally a great Malaysian food outlet in Hamilton. All the food so far has been great and portion sizes are large. The only complaint is that it is rather pricey but with it tasting that good, won't take marks off.
