Auckland Seafood Festival 2015 – Festival Review

So this happened awhile back (January 24th-25th, yeah when everyone was like it’s only January we got plenty of time left in 2015! PUH-LEASE! It’s freakin March 2015 already!) but it was such a great event, I had to blog about it even if it was SO LONG ago (PS that was sarcasm and yes I know I’m not good at it). The Auckland Seafood Festival … Continue reading Auckland Seafood Festival 2015 – Festival Review

Matakana Markets – Buffalo Burger

Just started a new job so posts will come in when I manage to salvage some time! The weekend before I started my new job, I went to the Matakana Markets 50 minutes up North from Auckland. I had no expectations and didn’t expect such a crowd when I went. This here is a BUFFALO BURGER – I didn’t know New Zealand even had Buffalo! … Continue reading Matakana Markets – Buffalo Burger

Takara Japanese Restaurant – Tauranga New Zealand

Takara Japanese Restaurant– 97 The Strand, Tauranga, New Zealand Service (4.5/5) Very prompt to greet and show us our table. We walked in for lunch and were greeted with URASHAMASEN. The staff had big smiles and were very attentive. Food (3/5) This place had won TripAdvisor two years in a row in 2013 and 2014. However having been to Japan before, it didn’t quite tick the … Continue reading Takara Japanese Restaurant – Tauranga New Zealand

1st Product Review! – Tasty Pot Mexican Pulled Pork

There are days were you just don’t feel like doing anything especially cooking. So I decided to eat something I wouldn’t usually eat and that’s ready made food/TV dinners. I wouldn’t call this a TV dinner but it certainly packs a whole lot of flavour without being artificial or fake. Price – Got this at the chilled section for $4 when it was on a discounted … Continue reading 1st Product Review! – Tasty Pot Mexican Pulled Pork

Brew Craft Beer Pub – Tauranga New Zealand

Brew Craft Beer Pub– 107  The Strand, Tauranga, New Zealand Service (3.5/5) Staff were probably busy but someone should be out on the front to welcome new customers in. They took our orders and made great suggestions for drinks (more on that later). Food (4/5) What made us come here was the fact there was a blackboard saying $20 Ribs (It’s usually $28). I ain’t gonna … Continue reading Brew Craft Beer Pub – Tauranga New Zealand

Wild Rice Thai Cuisine Restaurant – Rotorua New Zealand

Wild Rice Thai Cuisine Restaurant– 1114 Tutanekai St, Rotorua, New Zealand Group of friends and I came here after a long day of mountain biking. One of my friends felt like Thai and to be perfectly honest, my expectations were going to be biased as I have been to Thailand 3 times and you know the saying “it’s never the same” blah blah. Needless to say, we … Continue reading Wild Rice Thai Cuisine Restaurant – Rotorua New Zealand

Musashi New Lynn New Zealand – Lunch Review

Musashi – 3073 Great North Rd, New Lynn Service (4/5) IRASSHAI MASEN! Is a greeting you hear at a traditional Japanese restaurant and the same applies at Musashi. The waiter/waitresses are usually sharp and attentative. It’s a good thing they have a sign that states “Please wait to be seated” as you walk in. Food (4.5/5) Musashi has several branches in Auckland (St Heliers and Milford) … Continue reading Musashi New Lynn New Zealand – Lunch Review
