Silk Wok Restaurant 鸡毛店创意家常菜 — Restaurant in Howick

We were craving some fish and happened to drive past this place, so we decided to stop by. As we sat down, we quickly realized that this restaurant is best enjoyed with a group. However, the staff was incredibly welcoming and accommodating, assuring us that they could serve us their smaller fish options.

We ordered the steamed cod along with pork and chive dumplings and black bean beef as side dishes. Wow—everything was absolutely phenomenal!

Nonetheless this venue happens to be one of the higher-regarded Chinese restaurants in Auckland with many choosing to host gatherings and parties here, specifically travelling from all areas...

We came, we ate, and then we ate a lot more haha. SOOO many dishes today and I was honestly surprised to have so many that I could call my favourites. Some of them felt a bit like Chinese fusion such as the yellow prawn curry, but the variety all worked. What tasted like bbq teriyaki pork to beef with rice cakes to the sweet n sour fish, all of it would want any day. Their main dining area has loads of tables, but when you've got a group, opt for the truly private rooms in the back that either have their own toilet. Lastly, they've also got a mini fridge in these back rooms for you to grab whatever bottled drink you want and they'll count them up at the end just like...
