Selera - Wynyard Quarter New Zealand

Haven’t had Chicken Laksa in awhile. I guess Selera have one of the better laksa’s available in Auckland. <br/ <br/ Though I feel the broth is a bit too thick (or maybe it’s just my preference to have it slightly thinner , it is quite delicious and full of flavour. Serving is decent, more than enough for an average-sized Asian girl <br/ <br/ Teh Tarik is alright, not too sweet :

Portions are really big. Especially the laksa which was super tasty and came in a massive oversized bowl. Lots of meat and noodles and I wanted to finished the whole base but was top much. We were happy with the $18 dishes. Can't speak for price/portion on the more expenny stuff.

Embraced Selera for lunch for the first time and it was so good. The service provided by the boss was really attentive and he was extremely kind. He provided top notch service especially for the price for the food and that’s what makes Selera special. <br/ <br/ I got the Hainan chicken rice and it’s one of the best I’ve had in Auckland. The rice was full of chicken flavour and it tasted really authentic. The bean sprouts soaked the soy sauce really well. What I like to do is eat all the bean sprouts first and let the chicken sit in the soy sauce for awhile to soak in all the sauce. My brother got the chicken laksa and the portion was really big and smells wonderful too. Mum got the shrimp and chicken rice noodle and she said it’s good too.<br/ <br/ Highly recommend Selera for authentic Malaysian food. Great price and service too! Can’t ask for anymore.

This place gets really busy so it's hard to get an indoor table, especially for bigger groups. However, there are outdoor tables available. It's also good to know that the restaurant has a pay-first policy so that you don't get alarmed when staff takes table orders and asks you to pay. I wished they had Malaysian drinks like kopi or cham. But canned drinks are at $3.<br/ <br/ Despite the rather cramped table layout (I had to get the guy behind me to push in his chair just big enough for me to squeeze in), food has been splendid. My personal fave is the pandan chicken which I always get whenever I dine there. All the dishes I've tried so far were great. With my partner being Malaysian, we can definitely say that the food here is authentic and delicious.

You really can’t go wrong with the laksa from Selera! I love coming here on the warmer evenings and have a big bowl of laksa outside! The portions are huge and you can pick from so many options to customise your laksa! My personal favourite is the wontons!The service is quick and friendly! Remember to ask for yours spicy, I always need more spice!I’d also recommend the curry puffs which come with a half egg in each one!!!Make sure you visit the one in Kyber Pass, I’d recommend it over the new Selera in the mall
