Did not go as Jake says yarn too expensive here. Most of the yarn is for making sweaters and cold wear, so I think they are higher quality ones.

Dinner

Tipene’s Fish And Chips Takeaways

Was going to postpone this to next week, but since we were early after all the shops closed at 5pm at Onehunga, we decided to come here.

There was no table outside, only a bench with cobwebs and ants. Really have to do takeaway.

Run by a Thai chef and maybe his daughter.

HAVE TO SHIFT THIS TO ANOTHER DAY, SINCE WE ALREADY HAD MEAT FOR THE LAST 2 DINNERS (4 AND 5 DECEMBER)

Argentina BBQ


We hail from Argentina, the land of the Pampas, The Pumas, Che Guevara, Evita, Maradona and Messi. But most importantly, the land of the gauchos. Where a barbeque (or asado) is not only about ‘eating meat’ but more of a cult of enjoying a nice conversation with friends, drinking a good ‘red’ to only then savour the delicious meat that has been grilled patiently over slow-burning coals. All done with the time that good things take.

So relax, take your time, and get ready to taste the real flavour of the Pampas, right here, in the heart of Auckland.

LUNCH SPECIAL

Monday to Friday from 12 pm to 5 pm
$35 Meat + salad & Fries

Monday – Wednesday: 200gr Grass-fed Sirloin steak
