I visited this restaurant back in September of last year and we had an amazing dinner! The staff was super kind and the food was out of this world! We were told that Lai Thai Bistro was one of the few places in Auckland with truly authentic Thai food and this restaurant did not disappoint. Be sure to order the sweet chili fish. Me and my coworkers still talk about it to this day! Must visit!

Thai Cuisine pretty much got my through my last year of University. It's seriously cheap and ready…read morein a flash. But the best thing about Thai Cuisine is that it is the most amazing Thai food. Beautiful flavours that work so well together and satisfy any appetite. It was my go to when I'd come home late from studying and didn't have the energy to cook. The staff would always brighten my day and eventually knew my order off by heart! My favourite dish is the number 81, it's like Pad Thai but not as sweet. They also do a mean red curry. If your order is over $20 they'll deliver for free, perfect for a night in front of the telly. And if you reserve a table they give you free dessert.

If you go to Thai Cuisine enough, they'll recognise you and have a good idea of what you want to order. Hey, it's better that a Thai place know your order than a local bar, right? Am I right, guys? So what I've said so far is pretty peculiar, but I think that's fitting for Thai Cuisine. The decor at this place has to be seen to be believed. The pictures they tack up to the walls really take the cake for me - last time I was in there, they had a newspaper article about choosing the next pope up on the wall. Oh...kay? That aside, the food is served really super quickly and it's really tasty too. The Tom Kha soup is my favourite in town.

Narm Thong is a Thai restaurant located down the Mt Roskill end of Dominion Road. I've been there…read morequite a few times with my dad and we've always been really impressed by both the food and the service. Though over the years I've tried quite a few of their dishes, the ones that have stuck out in my mind as great options are the Gang Gra Ree and Gang Mussaman curries. Both come with potatoes, onions and traditional Thai spices, can be made with a variety of meats, and are absolutely delicious. As entrees go, I would also suggest Gra Ree Puffs - they are the best curry puffs this side of Auckland! The decor and atmosphere of Narm Thong is typical of Thai eateries - lots of fake gold cutlery, ornate framed pictures, traditional Thai music plays in the background, and all wait staff don traditional Thai attire, helping to set the scene. Narm Thong is a great place to meet friends or family for dinner and the atmosphere is really laidback and casual. The perfect Sunday night destination! Tip: Narm Thong offers dine in and takeaway options, as well as a catering service.

I ate lunch here today, for the first and the last time...no,no,no, not because it was bad (it…read morewasn't!), but because it just happened to be the last time they were offering lunch meals, just dinner service from the 28th March 2013 onwards. I give this place 4 stars! The service was really nice and friendly and they had great interior decor - origami napkins, origami looking light shades and even the artwork on the wall, great big 3D leaves, also had a origami feel, nice one. Very clean, tidy and a relaxed set-up, but also had a professional restaurant look too. I ordered Pad Thai, a traditional favourite by many, including myself. It wasn't spicy at all, had a nice tinge of lemon in the background. Tasted fresh and lovely. I had the tofu and veg variety. It only cost $13 with a soft drink included and the serving was a generous portion. I will be back, and I better take hubby next time...

Chill Out is where we go for 'fancy' Thai takeaways. It's almost double the price of Thai Cuisine…read moreacross the road (NB, most mains for takeaway are around $14 + rice, so not too expensive, thai cuisine's just really cheap), but the extra price is definitely reflected in the taste and quantity. This place is not for spice whimps. If you haven't been before, I recommend ordering the spice level below what you normally get, as they work on a Thai hotness scale, rather than kiwi hotness! Their sauces are not too sweet, and flavours are well-balanced. They also have some nice features like free delivery within a 5km radius for orders over $30, and a 'coffee card' where you get a stamp for main meals purchased and eventually get a free one. Though we really only get takeaways, you can also eat in.

The best night market I've been to! I've been to multiple night markets and I always felt…read moreeverything was overpriced. But I've heard good things about this night market and I'm so glad I decided to give it a go! This is the first night market that I've been to and I actually thought everything I ate was delicious and food was reasonably priced. My favourite was the Korean food stall by the big battery. They sold a large box filled with either rice or noodles (or fried rice for additional $1) and three different meat dishes of your choice for $13. This was such a great deal. I'm glad I had someone to share it with because the portion was huge! Tip: walk around the entire night market (it's not too big) before you buy anything. There are a couple stalls that sell the exact same thing but the portions/pricing are slightly different. I would definitely come back and would recommend it to anyone in Auckland on Sundays :)

Unlike restaurants at the markets you can nibble on this and that while you walk around and shop or you can sit down with your selection of goodies and enjoy the live music. Apart from the food, the night markets have stalls with clothing, phone accessories and bling bling. My favourite purchase to date is chunky beads that were hugely discounted. The night market is a must visit, for a bit of flavour and selection. Don't forget to try the pineapple with the ice-cream!
