沙县小吃 Sha Xian Snack — Restaurant in Albert-Eden

Came by before dinner to have their Oyster pie. There were quite a few interesting items on the menu too so we grabbed a few more to share, including the Fujian fishballs and the brown sugar mantou. Would probably have grabbed more if we weren't having dinner an hour later. The oyster pie was quite big and really crispy. It was full of veggies and had one small oyster inside. I found the filling to be a bit too sour for my liking. The Fujian fishballs were delicious. The fishballs were stuffed with mince and the soup was really tasty. It also came with vermicelli as a bonus. I also quite like the brown sugar mantou. It was a lot bigger than I was expecting and also a lot less sweet. It was nice and fluffy and really nice when it was still quite warm. Although they sell "snacks", they also have proper dishes on the menu. The place is quite big and the service...

This authentic Chinese food restaurant on Dominion Road may not have the most inviting look and feel, but the food speaks for itself. My fiancée and I decided to try it out before heading to Eden Park to watch an All Blacks game. We ordered Taro Balls, Dry Noodles with Peanut Sauce (large size), and Dumplings with Spicy Sauce (medium size).

The portions were generous and perfect for two people, and the prices were quite reasonable. The Taro Balls, in particular, were exceptionally well-fried and delicious – highly recommended! The peanut sauce noodles were also tasty, with ample portions that we thoroughly enjoyed. The dumplings, while similar to those at other Chinese restaurants, were still quite good.

Overall, this restaurant provided us with a satisfying dinner. Highly recommended for anyone who loves...

I’ve been going to this place for years and it’s consistently good, my personal favourites on the menu are the cucumber salad (which is one of the best in the city in my opinion), the peanut paste noodles (with the handmade noodles instead of the regular noodles) and the dumplings in spicy sauce. Everything is really tasty and it’s great value as well. I’d love to try out some more things on the menu and would highly recommend coming here for a quick, cheap and tasty lunch or dinner. I took my friends here a couple of weeks ago and we’ve been back two more times in the last month. There’s also lots of parking available and the service is efficient...
