vietnamese options

The chicken Vietnamese sandwich (also called Banh Mi) had a curry flavour inside, and the combination with cucumber and carrots was quite nice. It would have been even better with a crispy baguette, which the manager said is an option. Many selections of good food such as rice salad bowl, vietnam delicacies, sandos, and even breafkfast toast. I like the hot chocolate and the sandos especially ebi sandos, so yum... the eggs benedict also delicious. The services are fast and friendly. #newzealandtrip #couplestrip #Vietnamesefood

Authentic Vietnamese Cuisine @ Otahuhu

Try It Out Vietnamese Restaurant This place was highly recommended by my sister, so we just had to try it out while we were en route to Hamilton from Auckland. We ordered pho with rare beef, spring rolls vermicelli and grilled pork vermicelli. All our orders were really really good. The beef tasted fresh, and the broth was very flavourful and fragrant. We especially love the grilled pork skewers. Very generous portions of meat which were tender and seasoned to perfection. We really enjoyed our meal. All our orders were exactly what you would expect out of great Vietnamese lunch. Price wise, it was rather pricey compared to other Vietnamese outlets, but the taste was satisfying. LOCATION: 79 Atkinson Avenue, Ōtāhuhu, Auckland 1062, New Zealand OPENING HOURS: 10am - 9pm Friday- Wednesday (Closed on Thursday) PRICE :NZD $20-$25 #deliciousfood #summervacation #passionpassport #foodie #auckland

Chur Bae

#newzealandtrip Been hearing a lot about chur bae so i had to check it out! it was quite busy the day we came but the service was great and attentive. Started off with the matcha latte, i've been trying matcha from multiple places in auckland seeing which one is the best. Chur bae was good. creamy and not too grassy which i like, i do hope for a more vibrant green though. We got two dishes the kimchi fried rice with fried chicken and tried their happy hour of fried chicken and fries. the kimchi fried rice was great! i love kimchi so i knew i would enjoy this. The fried chicken i had added on was i think some of the best fried chicken i ve had, delicious, crunchy outside, tender juicy inside. The happy hour meal was awesome aswell! those fries were so crunchy and the chicken was again awesome!! good prices as well and such a good spot to meet a friend or have a meal. the atmosphere was really cool as well. These meals were such a hit personally and can't wait to head back and try another dish.

#newzealandtrip So yummy!! Staff is really nice, ambience is on point - it's a place you could come for brunch/ coffee on your own and stay to work on stuff or to come with loved ones and chat forever over a delicious meal! Whatever you choose, make sure you get the eggs benny with bacon it's PHENOMENAL at first I thought "it's a bit expensive" but then I realized it's served with a whole pack of bacon AND it comes with a hash brown. Honestly it was perfect, 10/10 would recommend I will most definitely be coming back for more some time soon!
