Weekends just got better!

If you’re like me, and live for your weekend breakfast or brunches, then life just got better with Luxerose Cafe’s breakfast deals. For $20 you choose from a wide menu, plus get a tea or coffee as part of the deal. It’s pretty hard not to choose something you will enjoy at this deal, and…

I’m a Beasty convert!

It was my first visit to Hello Beasty but it won’t be my last. My bestie has raved about it for some time and I definitely wanted to check it out with them. Asian fusion at its finest and their share-plates style is complete up my alley as it’s the way I enjoy eating out…

Beautiful and simple Italian flavours

Cornelia is one of the newest kids on the block in Parnell and while the menu is simple, there is beauty and flavour in its simplicity! They opened during last year’s lockdown which was tough but their tenacity and positivity throughout has been noticed. I’ve picked up sandwiches and desserts for picnics or quick lunches,…

Beautiful modern Indian flavours at 3 Nutmegs

I’ve been wanting to share a proper post about 3 Nutmegs Eatery for a while now to hype them because it definitely needs some hype. Not your average Indian restaurant with the usual dishes but some really unique, tasty and modern twists on classics as well as just really fresh tasty produce. We’ve tried a…

Last meal out for 2021!

Pearl Garden Restaurant was our go to yum cha spot for our last meal out of the year! The last time we had yum cha was on Miss 8’s birthday, around 5 months ago, and we have definitely been missing our yum cha fix. It was a bit of a different experience not to be…

Di Mare Restaurant – a Parnell monument

My family moved to Auckland in 1995 and ever since I can remember, Di Mare has been in existence. Known as a family owned restaurant and basically a Parnell monument, they have been consistent over the many decades they’ve been around and known best for their seafood, steak and pasta! Tucked away in a cute…

Croissant meet waffle

It seems to be all the rage these days, when croissant meets waffle, you get croffles! It really is a genius idea, and the perfect canvas for sweet and savoury breakfast/brunch ideas. The girls and I checked out The Candy Shop as it’s close to home and the perfect spot for a post lockdown brunch…

Cravings

I’m absolutely craving good Vietnamese food! In fact, I’ll probably trek to @mr.t.thebaker soon just to get my fix. ⁣ This visit was pre-lockdown and I just never had the chance to post about it, but looking at these photos again and all the freshness oozing from them, makes me want to jump in the…

Takeaways just aren’t the same…

Before lockdown, I had an incredible dining experience at Azabu Ponsonby. Let’s face it, takeaways just aren’t the same are they? Eating out comes as a package.. besides the food, it’s also the experience of the service, atmosphere, the smells, the sounds and more! I’m glad to say we can all be having these experiences…

Mediterranean feasting!

When you can’t travel to the Mediterranean, it sure helps to feast like you have, even if it’s just at home. ⁣⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣@odettes_eatery released dinner boxes for every week (for Fridays and Saturdays) and they aren’t only super delicious but great value too. We got the dinner for two box and for $60 there was a…
