A
random
walk
in
to
a
tiny
eatery
for
dinner;
ended
up
with
good
food
in
a
cozy
setting.
Love
little
cozy
eateries;
not
everyone
might
-
the
space
works
best
as
a
bar,
but
that
doesnt
do
justice
to
how
well
the
food
turned
out.
Granted
this
is
a
first
time
experience,
but
the
how
good
the
food
was
forced
me
to
write
this
review.
We
had
the
tikki
chat,
vegetarian
chow
mein,
lasooni
daal
and
garlic
naan.
The
naan
was
thin
and
very
well
made,
the
chow
mein
was
very
well
done
too.
The
lasooni
daal
was
rustic,
reminded
me
of
all
the
road
trip
dhabas
back
in
India.
It
was
some
of
the
best
daal
I
have
had
in
Auckland
in
a
very
long
time.
Daals
are
simple
dishes,
which
make
it
hard
to
hide
mistakes
behind
a
wall
of
spice
and
overwhelming
flavour
(and
no
it
was
not
a
wall
of
lasson
either).
Whoever
cooked
this
knows
his
way
around
good
north
indian
punjabi
cooking.
The
tikki
was
very
well
made.
I
dont
know
if
its
kitchen
made
or
off
the
shelf,
but
it
crispy
on
the
outside
and
well
cooked
inside.
Make
that
a
chat
and
it
was
a
symphony
of
flavour.
I
think
the
daal
and
the
tikki
just
put
the
chow
mein
(which
really
was
good)
in
shade
coz
of
how
good
it
was.
Our
experience
with
the
staff
was
good.
A
picky
eater
amongst
us
has
requests
on
how
each
dish
was
to
be
cooked.
They
did
it
very
well.
The
rice
that
came
with
the
food
was
an
iffy.
But
I
think
am
placing
a
high
standard
on
a
small
eatery
and
bar
in
Takapuna.
There
are
1
year
old
comments
that
put
the
place
in
shade.
My
experience
did
not
match
those
comments.
If
you
are
keen
on
really
good
simple
rustic
north
indian
punjabi
food
that
reminds
you
of
home
-
this
place
may
be
worth
it
