Silk Road Eatery

What's better than affordable and quality food? Great service. You can always find good food in any city in the world. But very rarely do you actually come across a team which puts just as much care and effort into their service as their food. They've got such a diverse menu, you'll definitely find something you'll love. Also did I mention that everything is super cheap? $1 Peri Peri Wings :O). 10/10 would recommend. Right by the UoA and AUT. Opens late till 9pm. The perfect student munchie.

Chef Dane has always been on another level with the flavours, respect, and love for cooking that he puts into each dish! Highly recommend this eatery

A hidden gem nestled below apartments on Symonds St is this precious little Eatery by someone with a big heart. <br/ <br/ Dane the head chef gave up his fine-dining culinary experience to venture towards this student-oriented hub. The menu is inspired by a combination of Indian and African cuisines. Amongst this includes Peri Peri Chicken, Hueberger, Mac’n’Cheese; even Ramen and Bibimbap with his own little twist! <br/ <br/ Food here is generous, affordable, but most importantly — passion and emotions can be felt in each dish. I’ve tried a small selection of their menu and they hit all the spots. I was fortunate to get a taste of Dane’s fine-dining side during his private event “a taste down Silk Road”. Probably can’t find these on the menu here but they deserve extensive credit! <br/ <br/ They are open till late most days of the week unless sold out prior (goes to show they are popular! . The place is decorated by themselves (Dane and Jenny , with their own twist and really making the place their own. <br/ <br/ Food: 10/10<br/ Price: 10/10<br/ Ambience: 10/10 <br/ Service: 10000000/10

Came here for dinner and ordered a Periperi Chicken Heuburger. The fillings were really nice and delicious but the bun’s outer crust was so hard! It was tough to cut through and I could bite through it but then all the toppings would fall off from the force <br/ <br/ Wait time wasn’t bad and the atmosphere is really cosy! Would definitely visit again to try the other things on the menu.

London, Paris, Tokyo, SILK ROAD EATERY. This place is utterly delectable. The house made bread is a total triumph and coupled with mouth-watering BBQ they have a major winner with the Heuburger. The sweet spring rolls are otherworldly, seriously, deep fried cheesecake with a chocolate mousse dipping sauce!? Bring me back down to earth! Don't go past this place, a massive 5 stars from a new massive fan.
