    Pretty cute table designs

    Now if your a dominion road local you'll know there's some fierce competition up and down that road. Shaolin Kung fu noodle is pretty run of the mill when it comes to service and setting, and their dumplings aren't my personal favourite on the strip. But their spicy chicken Kung fu noodle soup is on a whole other level, though it did have some questionable looking "chicken" floating around in it and one noodle looked like it could have been a shoe lace in a past life, the flavour was amazing. I would just drink the soup, no "chicken" or shoe laces needed.

    This used to be one of our regular favourite eating places but not so much now due to the price going up noticeably. But still we do go now and then as the food is good , the service is okay and the area is good for finding a car park. Their dumplings are amongst my favourite from anywhere around and 大盘鸡 ( the big plate chicken ) is delicious. Is a lot of the time when we go busy but they have more seats upstairs so need to worry about finding somewhere to sit.

    Reviewing this place is almost a waste of time. You've read the name of the restaurant - what more information could you possibly need? Best name ever! Go there now. However, if that's not enough for you (perhaps you're not a martial arts-obsessed 14-year-old boy), then rest assured that the food is also very good. Lots of noodle dishes, as the name suggests, and a seaweed salad that I personally recommend. Prices are ridiculously cheap given the quality and quantity - two people can gorge themselves on a variety of filling treats for less than thirty bucks. And if there's an attack by a neighbouring warlord, you'll be in the safest place in Auckland.

    The only place that provides Chinese and Muslim friendly food on Dominion Food as it is operated by the Hui ethnic group of China, an ethnic minority group. No pork. Don't bring your own food in. Not the flashest but cheap and huge varieties. Don't ask for awesome services though. Not why they are there in the first place.

    Knife cut lamb noodles. SO GOOD!

    Amazing knife cut lamb noodles. The broth is amazing. Great and quick service as well!

    Beautifully spicy soup noodles, hand-pulled or cleaver cut. Best noodle place in auckland. Many dishes cold and hot, fried noodles as well.

    Grab any noodle dishes, but avoid anything else as it is pretty average, having said that the hand pulled noodles are worth the visit!

    Whilst not the cheapest dumpling shop on dominion road, and not providing the friendliest of service (standard for these parts) Shaolin Kung Fu do some of the better noodles I've had.

    The hotel concierge recommended the Commercial Bay food court on the second floor. At first, we…read morewere hesitant about eating at a food court as we imagined it would be like Taco Bell, Panda Express, Burger King, etc. But it turned out to be more like a modern food hall. It's inside a commercial building with over ten vendors offering a nice mix of cuisines: Vietnamese, Malaysian, Chinese, Mediterranean, and Korean, plus a few places for juice, açaí, and matcha drinks. We decided to try Eden Noodle, mainly because it had the longest line--which usually says something about how popular (and hopefully good) the food is. We ordered the pork ribs with rice noodles and the wontons in chili oil. We chose mild, but it was still quite spicy, so next time we'll definitely go for not spicy. The ordering process was super easy. You go to one of the three kiosks, grab a pager with a number, enter your order, pay, and wait for the buzzer to go off when your food's ready--it took about 15 minutes for ours. There's plenty of seating--tables, chairs, and benches--and you often end up sharing a table with strangers. That might feel unusual for Americans, but it actually reminded me of Hong Kong, where space is limited and communal dining is the norm. Overall, portion sizes were decent for the price, and the flavors were good--just a bit spicier than expected for "mild."

    Just great food. Small no frills place. Chili wontons are a must and the cucumber salad was a good…read morerefreshing balance. Grandma was making dumplings by hand right when you walk in like she does everyday. You prefer before you sit down so know what you want. Go here.

    Neon lights? Check. Cheap and delicious Asian-fusion food?…read moreCheck. Friendly service? Check. Unlimited corn chips and fizzy and closing time of 2am? Bonus. You will find all this and more at the newly opened Belly Worship, a Chinese-fusion style restaurant located on Dominion Road. On the menu, there are a range of dishes available - steamed and fried dumplings, taco buns, spicy pancakes, stir-fried noodles, chicken, pork, beef and tofu dishes. The restaurant is not licensed, but they do offer a self-service bar where you pay just $3 for unlimited soft drink, alongside popcorn, corn chips and pretzels. This is a great idea - something to snack on while you wait for the rest of your party. It is also self-service for plates, bowls, cutlery and added sauces. Between three of us, we ordered quite a feast: - Spinach Taco Bun with Pork Belly ($7) - Shrimp, Pork and Chive Dumplings ($12) - Litchi Pork ($9.90) - Spicy Pancake ($5), with Duck (+$8) - Bamboo Chicken Wings ($14) - KungFu Kebabs with Fish Tofu and Beef ($16) - Scallion Fried Broccoli ($14) - Coconut Rice ($3) We enjoyed every dish (except one, see below), with our favourites being their signature Litchi Pork - similar to sweet and sour pork, but a little less rich and accompanied by potatoes and whole litchi (lychees). Priced at $9.90, it is a steal! The Spicy Pancake was also a highlight - crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. You can choose to have one of six fillings if you like (at an additional price) - we chose Duck. The pancake was huge, and with the extra duck and bean sprouts/slaw, this could be a meal in itself! It was also spicy, flavourful and the duck was cooked perfectly. We also liked the deliciously spiced and crispy Bamboo Chicken Wings, the arrival of the Shrimp, Pork and Chive Dumplings sizzling in the pan, the KungFu Kebabs with tender beef (not sure about the fish tofu), and our two side dishes, Scallion Fried Broccoli (YUM!) and Coconut Rice. The only dish we did not enjoy was the Spinach Taco Bun. Having read many great reviews, I had high hopes. Plus, the bun is green! (Thanks to the fresh spinach infused into the soft taco bun). However, we were super disappointed and left half of it. The bun was dry, the pork belly was dry and there was no flavourful sauce to tie all the ingredients together. Serving sizes for all dishes were plentiful and everything is reasonably priced. We also had more than enough to eat (for three) for lunch the following day. So, what did I think overall? Belly Worship is definitely worth checking out, for its cheap and cheerful menu, Instagram-worthy decor, and quirky self-service bar offering unlimited snacks and soft drink.. bring on the Fanta!!! [P.S. If you are Googling 'Belly Worship', make sure you put Dominion Road or Auckland too... otherwise you will be in for a surprise!]
