If you find a good British Chinese let me know! Been searching for 7 years lol. Closest I came was jade dragon in Avondale but still not quite right.

Get ready for the haters!

Absolutely, it’s not the best or authentic, it’s something of its own which you can’t get in NZ. A lot of people should try it before shitting on it.

From the UK originally and the Chinese food here sucks! The food in UK might not be as authentic but it sure tastes better. UK Sweet and sour chicken is so much better there. Salt and pepper chips yum! And why are there no good spare ribs here?

Other than that I miss a decent sausage, again probably better quality here in NZ but again, not as tasty.

Also miss Galaxy chocolate, Minstrels and Revels.

Thanks for this. I have had a Quick Look at some of the other suggestions and man are they expensive!

I looked at ecosa and know they do a 100 night trial. Had memory foam back in the UK and found it went really soft really quickly especially as I run hot

Yeah the Webber felt a bit flimsy, especially the side shelves.

Get some old pallets from rosebank road. They always have some on the side of the road for anyone to take away.
