Order Food in orakei

As much as we love bal ganga, one thing this place lacks is consistency. We ordered momos (delicious btw) two times in 2 weeks. First time when the owner was there, the order was good. The second time we went, the order wasn’t complete. Momos were carelessly thrown in the container, there was no sauce with it or the special powder/masala was missing.

My partner recommended this restaurant for its dry noodles with peanut sauce, so we decided to visit for dinner on Sunday. We ordered the dry noodles with peanut sauce and dumplings (dandan noodles), kkwobarou, and shrimp fried rice. The noodles were delicious as expected! The peanut sauce paired perfectly with the dumplings. We loved it. The fried rice was quite good and generously portioned. Lastly, the kkwobarou, fried with a layer of glutinous rice, was incredibly tasty and sweet. I really enjoyed it! Overall, we had a great dinner here and this place is highly recommended.

Ordered wonton noodle soup for $12 at midday. No other customer. Service was quick but the soup didn't have garnish or vegetables. But the soup was great

The roast meals are always good especially the roast pork meal and that pork crackling is fire! The hot chips, fried chicken and chicken nibbles are some of the best in Auckland! Service is great too except sometimes a grumpy lady behind the counter who can't take a joke and also when they say the hot chips will take "7 minutes" but it takes double that! (NOTE: I am describing my interaction with the previous owners, not the current new owners who were running the shop the week before Christmas 2023).

Best tamago katsu Don, I've had outside Japan. Just the right flavour combo for a boy from Osaka.

The best Bruce Lee sushi I’ve had. Every other location has not lived up to this one. Always saucy fresh ingredients.
