In my humble opinion, the best fish and chips out West. Been coming here for several years and have…read morenever got a bad meal. They do a really good batter with the fish and I think that's what makes it good. Service is always very prompt - when we ring in an order, it's always waiting for us when we arrive. Their hot chips are good quality and they always give us a generous portion. They do a range of Chinese food too here and it is also quite good - considerably better than some of the rival takeaways in the neighbourhood. The Roberts Road location of these shops is quite popular with people on the weekends but you can generally get a park. There's a good selection of eateries here (Dominos, a bakehouse, Thai etc) but I reckon Blue Lagoon is probably the best of them. Make sure, if you get fish and chips, you get snapper as it's the best quality.

It's not a place to drive across town to get to, but it's perfectly good if you're nearby and want a cheap and easy dinner. The smorgasbord is where it's at here: I have ordered off the menu before but it seems to confuse some of the people there, and with a big container of food available for only $6, there's not much point going past the bain marie. Another good point is that because it's busy, the food gets made pretty often, so it's not sitting at food-poising incubating temperature!

I had passed this burger joint a few times walking along Queen Street and one night, tired and…read morehungry, I grabbed one to go. The place is bright and colorful, simple menu and what looked like good sandwiches. They also had drinks to go and fountain sodas. Unlike most restaurants in NZ, there wasn't water on the counter so I bought a bottle; they didn't tell me you could get it for free behind the counter. I ordered what sounded like a simple burger and some fries. I loved the packaging; cardboard wrapper that opened to hold it together. The beef quality was just okay; there was way too much sauce and mayo. The fries were too salty so I couldn't finish them. I had much better burgers later on my trip, this one isn't really worth the visit.

I would say though, a little secret not many will know, and will just top the meal off that much better, is to ask for chicken salt on the chips.

These guys are very generous with their servings, I can rarely even finish a small serve in one sitting to be honest. It is open till 9 pm every night and opens at 10 am, so these guys work hard.

I don't know if I have ever eaten so much food for so little money!…read more I'm told Mr Zhou was the previous owner of New Flavour and plenty of dishes are the similar to what you'll find there but what surprised me is that, contrary to the name, Mr Zhou does a whole heap more than dumplings. Don't worry there's still plenty of those doughy delights but there's also hand-pulled noodles, savoury pancakes and this refreshingly zingy salad of cucumber and tofu that fans of New fFavour will know well. Seriously, how does this man find the time.... The interior isn't much to write home about with only a couple of cheap tables and chairs but the food comes out fresh and fast and of course, there's takeaway. You can even purchase the dumplings frozen for $2 less than the menu price to cook at home. I know what I'll be serving at my next dinner party....

There are only about 3-4 small tables, and the food is served in plastic takeaway containers. On the night we visited they were doing a roaring takeaway trade. The owners used to run New Flavour, so they know their way around homemade dumplings, hand-pulled noodles & tasty Chinese food. The menu is very similar to New Flavour, so dumplings are a must - choose from such flavours, and my personal favourites, of Pork, prawn & chives, Mutton & onion and Egg, chives & prawn. You can order them steamed or fried, or even frozen to take them away & cook at home! Other dish recommendations are: Sliced dried tofu & cucumber salad if you can handle a tangy hit of chilli in the dressing, the Fried pancakes, any of the noodle dishes and the Deep-fried eggplant with pork mince stuffing. In fact, give me time & I'd probably list the entire menu! Would love to hear some other tried & true favourites though. Cheap, cheerful Chinese - you can't go wrong!

The phone call was only slightly easier; the background noise of kitchen fans was fairly defeaning to both parties but we got there in the end after a few comedic moments. KT Fried Chicken for him and Vege Soup for me, available to pick up five minutes. Promising. The menu here is major, covering Japanese, Singaporean, Thai, Chinese - you name it. Our food was steaming fresh but oddly without flavour. Once I dumped dried chilli and soy sauce all over mine it was actually delicious but sadly the KT Chicken was a fail. I think it was maybe a case of ordering the wrong thing as those fat sticky rice noodles really aren't to everyone's taste. The man that runs Yes Noodles is lovely, the place is sparkling and the food has so much potential. I think what this place needs is more garlic, ginger and chilli, and onions would be a plan too. We will give it another go and try different dishes because the pick your own ingredients noodlebox thing is such a great idea; if we can just find the right dishes, we're onto a winner.
