Favourite Restaurants in New Zealand

    "Don't you just love the ferry trip to Waiheke? It's like leaving Auckland without really leaving Auckland since it's such a quick trip but a great way to unwind and leave the city behind you. The Oyster Inn is the perfect place to treat yourself to some luxury, whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just want to treat yourself. The kitchen is open all day and they serve beautiful artisanal food with an emphasis on local produce and seafood. Fresh oysters are a speciality (hence the name). I love the elegant feel of this place, it's so simply decorated but is still luxurious in every way and if you visit for a meal, it's really tempting to stay in one of their chic rooms. Definitely a must-see on Waiheke."

    "Penang has quite a reputation, given that celebrity chef Simon Gault rates it as his favourite Malaysian place in Auckland. It's interesting that quite a lot of people make the trip out to Otahuhu for it and after not getting around to it for ages, I finally made the effort and found it well worth the drive. Funny how sometimes it's the unremarkable looking places that have food that's sensational, this little restaurant makes authentic Malaysian food that is inexpensive and the portion sizes are particularly generous. Make sure you try their chicken dishes as the flavours are superb."
