Apadana Restaurant & Bar - Dominion Road, Balmoral

Auckland's Dominion Road is home to a wildly varying range of shops, scenes, people and cultures. Hardly surprising for a road that spans almost 7 kilometers in length and crosses 4 suburbs. Hardly surprising as well then, is the fact that the range of cuisine on offer on this road is diverse as the road is long. From Indian to Italian, Chinese to Turkish, takeaways to fine dining and everything in between. On this particular night, some friends and I were catching up over dinner at Apadana Restaurant & Bar, a Mediterranean themed restaurant on Dominion Road.

Rocket Kebabs - Mt. Albert

A hectic schedule at the moment forces me to write a very quick post tonight. Since this is a quick post, what better to review than one of the solutions to food in a hurry... the takeaway joint.

Takeaways don't have to be greasy, unhealthy meals. There are a few places around that serve up good healthy (or healthy-ish) food that's perfect for a quick convenient meal when the pantry's bare or you just can't be bothered cooking. Rocket kebabs is one of those places that showed up a couple of years ago (or thereabouts) in Mt. Albert opposite Rocket Park on New North Road.

Erawan Thai - Herne Bay

An impromptu decision to eat out on Sunday night had Eva, Mother and I on the doorstep of Erawan Thai on Jervois Road in Herne Bay. Having heard great things about this restaurant from Herne Bay locals, we decided it would be a good way to warm ourselves up on a cold and wet Auckland night.
