The oysters were very delicious. They were small but delicious. It was the first time I ate such delicious oysters. The oysters were 7 New Zealand dollars each. The cod burger was nothing special. I ate too much in the afternoon, so I ordered some for a midnight snack.
Great coffee and hot chocolate. My friend and I had bacon and omelette for breakfast, which was super fresh and delicious. Don't like drinking water from metal containers though, it has an unpleasant metal taste. Glass ones are best.

From afternoon tea to dinner
Catch the tail of Restaurant Month
The scenery of Orbit 360° Dining on a sunny day is so beautiful that it is intoxicating
The only problem is that the revolving restaurant is not very friendly to people with severe motion sickness [Erha]
This shop's precise grasp of every detail in the ingredients and baking process makes the bread taste so good that it is on a different level from all other bakeries!
No phone number, no official website, business hours are arbitrary
No advertising, low-key
But it doesn't affect its popularity at all. Basically, you can rush in as soon as the door opens. It will be sold out around noon
▪️ᴍᴇʟᴛʏ ғʀᴇɴᴄʜ ᴛᴏᴀsᴛ
The small pieces of French bread are so cute
The bread absorbs the milk and egg liquid and is completely integrated. You can feel its softness and tenderness when you tear it open. The surface is a bit like a thin fried egg skin with a layer of shiny sugar baked
The egg fragrance is particularly strong, the honey is sweet and charming, and the milk flavor is not strong. Simple but super healing
▪️ᴍɪxᴇᴅ ʙᴇʀʀʏ & ᴄʜᴏᴄᴏʟᴀᴛᴇ
The first thing you eat is the cookie-like crispness, and then the lightness of the croissant. It is very crisp and layered
Homemade berry jam with cherries Sweet and sour, refreshing with a distinct fleshy texture. The bottom layer is full of chocolate sauce, mellow and not greasy.
▪️ʙᴀɴᴀɴᴀ & ᴄʜᴏᴄᴏʟᴀᴛᴇ
This one has a better contrast between crisp and soft. The soft banana is hidden inside, which goes well with the chocolate sauce. There is also a charming cardamom powder.
I really like his Japanese style. Even with this kind of filling, the overall taste is still very refreshing.
▪️ʙʀᴏᴡɴ sᴜɢᴀʀ ᴄɪɴɴᴀᴍᴏɴ ᴛᴏᴀsᴛ
It seems that the buns with mediocre appearance will be amazing in the end. Grab the last piece of brown sugar cinnamon toast.
The layer of icing on the surface is sweet and crispy. The heart starts to beat with a click.
The taste of Brio is quite perfect. The outer ring is golden and the inner filling is soft and tough.

I recommend the lamb chops in this restaurant, they are very well cooked. The herb lamb chops are very good, with three lamb bones at a time. They are very tender inside after being cut. The squid cold dish is good, the squid is half-cooked and very tender.
The food in this restaurant is very good, so it takes a little longer to eat here. The big clam dish is delicious. There is also super delicious beef, medium rare and very tender. The waiters are very friendly.

Here's a picture of last night's dinner: It's a pity that I couldn't eat lamb chops, I could only eat fish. Lamb chops are said to be delicious, fish is average. But the dessert surprised me, especially the caramel pudding, which was extremely delicious 😋 The price is acceptable, very good.
We ate at this restaurant twice in one week. The food was cooked to perfection, retaining its original flavour and very delicious. The flavours were great and the main courses were perfect; the waiters were friendly and the service was fast and efficient.

Fried squid, the squid is not wrapped with rice or meat, but with cucumbers, carrots, etc., which makes it taste better. Fragrant and crispy squid rings! One person can eat a large plate~
It's always a pleasure to go to Mussels on Monday. The food is great, the prices are very reasonable and you can choose the mussels you want (very good). They also have a large selection of beers. Don't forget to make a reservation. The restaurant is busy most of the time (very busy).

Many people in Giapo were eating ice cream and drinking water at the same time. I curiously spent 130 to buy a popular ice cream. The unique Blackberry & Martini Rosso and Coffee & Hozelnut were served with crispy cones wrapped in white chocolate and raspberry coconut. The first bite: Ah~ What a unique taste~ The second bite: Ah~ What a layered taste~ The third bite: Why is it so sweet... Then, like everyone else, I finished it while drinking water.
One of the best dessert shops in Auckland. It mainly sells ice cream and is located in the city. It is an online celebrity shop. You can see this shop in many guides. You can give it a try. But for those who don't like sweets, it may be a bit greasy. Yes, I think it's a bit too sweet.

Amazing atmosphere along with the beautiful views of the city. I went around the sunset time and it had spectacular view. The staff is so courteous and they have an absolute amazing gin collection by far the best in the city. It’s a must try place if you never been here.
