Great lunch at the Greenkeeper’s Cafe
Delicious Cajun Chicken, Bacon and Banana Salad. At Szimplah, Auckland Airport. Yummy lunch with Michelle Lennon.
Chickens in a blanket? At the Grill, Elliot Stables
Choconana crepe at Atrium on Elliot, Auckland
I had never ordered a meal I could not finish until I went to the Turkish Cafe in Ponsonby. This one had everything!! Lamb, chicken, salad, rice, bread, hummus. ZOMG!
Chicken burger at Casablanca Cafe. Was big but did not live up to their bold claim of being the best gourmet burger in Auckland
Kapiti Ice Cream shop. Shortland St, Auckland CBD. White chocolate raspberry and mint chocolate chip
Home made bread
I can definitely recommend the Laucke bread mixes, the crusty white version is absolutely amazing. You can use it both in your breadmaker or by hand.
I spoke to them at the Food Show, and received a valuable tip - if you have a new-ish model breadmaker then best to reduce the water slightly. I used the amount specified for hand mixing and it came out perfectly.
The sandwich here included a chicken breast, beetroot, pineapple, onion and lettuce. Great Sunday afternoon lunch or dinner
Chicken Katsu Curry at Wagamama
Breaded chicken, rice and the best curry sauce ever. With a small salad on the side to make you feel less guilty.
About $18 - great value
