Uxbridge Cafe - East Tamaki New Zealand

We had breakfast today at a lovely and cosy cafe within UXBRIDGE, the Arts Culture hub of Howick in East Auckland, NZ. I enjoyed my order of a plate of spicy chicken with wafers.  It had a taste of wasabi in the chicken which gave it a nice kick of flavour.  The other order was a big breakfast with two fried eggs, a hash brown, two small chorizos, two slices of bacon, half tomato and a few pieces of mushrooms.  Nothing special in that dish which cost $22 which is a bit on the high side.

Have been to this restaurant in its old location several times.Thought to try the new location..Ita mainly a cafe style restaurant and gets cold on a cold evening if you are seated by the glass .Service was ok as there was only one waitress serving 7 tables...Entree s were the lamb kabab which was apicey and very tasty and the nutter chicken taco was spicey too but had wonderful flavours.Mains were the fish of the day which was hapuka..Not many flavours on this dish which i was expecting, came with stir fried carrots and brussel sprouts and a tamaotoe sala but it all just lavked the exciting flavours from the entrees..The slow cooked lab was very nice and had curry base with yoghurt. This was a very nice dish<br/ .Finally desserts were gulab jamun cheese cake,bit confused if this was a deconstructed cheesecake and was overly sweet.The mango parfait was tasty with the freez dried berries..Overall ok meal with a fusion on indian flavours.

This is something different!If you looking for a change from a usual this is the place to go to!Just the atmosphere here is relaxing without the food.But get some coffee and appetite will come!

I took my three grandchildren aged 3,5 and 8 to see the Bubble Show. He was captivating! The children focused for an hour, no wriggling, laughed and clapped and were thoroughly entertained. I would recommend this show to families!

Attended the beginners' pottery class for five lessons and it was a lovely experience. Our teacher explained as best as he could and he also has an amazing background with pottery. He helped out with my almost disastrous looking pottery but I managed to make a few that looked alright. The wait for firing the pottery wasnt too long either around 5 days. Will definitely think about attending other classes or continuing practicing pottery.
