K Sing Restaurant — Restaurant in North Island

Had a lovely solo lunch meal here. Asked the waiter for Laos recommendations and she pointed out a selection of vegetarian Laos meals to pick from, including one she enjoyed lots as a child!

She said Thai and Laos cuisine have many similarities. But, there are dishes on the menu specifically from Laos! Worth asking!

I ordered the Tofu Khua Mee. As of April 2023 the meal was $23.50. The noodles where wide rice noodles in a thick, sticky, slightly sweet but deliciously savoury sauce. Tossed through the dish was fried firm tofu, bean sprouts, and zesty slices of spring onion. There were crushed peanuts, julienne carrot and cabbage on the side with a wedge of lemon I squeezed over everything! Excellent char flavour from being wok tossed.

‘Hot’ was exceptionally hot. I do warn you! It was definitely at the top of my tolerance. But, luckily still fantastically tasty… I just had to eat slow and sip water. It was a lip and tongue burn — quite different to the chilli burn from North Indian cuisine and Chinese cuisines.

I will 100% be returning soon! Vegan...

Yummy! Having lived in Petone for 20 years this was our first visit to K Sing. Finding ourselves with a house suddenly full of young adults thanks to our son we decided to eat out. The restaurant was full but had a table for 2 near the register. As we were looking at the menu a friendly fellow told us that he had been coming here for 11 years and had tried everything on the menu. Taking his recommendations we ordered number 22 and number 28. One was a chicken dish with veges in a coconut cream sauce and the other a beef dish with veges. The waitress suggested we try mild as we could add chilli if we needed to. It was plenty spicy for me. Delicious and very filling we are glad we went and...

Chill and good place for chatting. Food is amazing as the quality taste it's so authentic. Tom yam soup taste so authentic as hot level is mild unlike some places, add a generous amount of ingredients that I would said a bowl of soup with add one a bowl of rice is perfect for small appetite stomach as thier portion is standard but ingredient is way reasonable. Ordered lardar noodle,it look like "Malaysian Hor Tan Hur " but different due to noodle type and like I mention before the proteins and vegs ingredient is so so much which is worthy for the price. Spring roll is the best unlike ,(Fish n chips Shop) as the ingredients is not so soggy. Pricing I would say...
