🇨🇦 Mabou

The Red Shoe

Seafood

This restaurant is known for their great Acadian Irish music but their food is just as great. We started out with the Hummus and bruschetta appetizer. This was a huge surprise for something so ordinary. It was the best Hummus I’ve ever had. Come to find out it is an old family recipe of the chef who was from the Middle East. The Halibut was prepared perfectly pan seared and the fish & chip also had a light batter flakiness. The music was great. The restaurant is located in the small town of Mabou in Cape Breton.

Nice Italian restaurant. Came for the pizza made in their custom pizza oven. Crust was not bready and cooked evenly across with homemade sauce. Calamari was fantastic fresh, light batter and thick pieces. Also had a very nice side of Broccolini that is some of the best prepared I’ve ever had.

Very creative and extremely tasty seafood options. Hapuku Cantonese Style white fish was a great treat. The simple firm fish and chips had a clean flaky batter. The deep fried cheese on a stock used the same tasty batter. Reservations a must.

🇳🇿 Hamilton

Gothenburg Restaurant

Tapas Bar

If you travel through Hamilton and looking for a great meal try Gothenburg. Sitting at the end of the central business district it is a little quieter than the heart of the CBD. The restaurant had a great variety of Tapas options. Our favorite by far was the grilled market fish with cherry tomatoes and baby potatoes. The market fish was snapper, a common white fish in New Zealand.

Cheese

Mercer cheese next to Mercer Landing Kitchen has one of the best cheese shops in New Zealand. They make and sell their own cheese. It is about an hour south of Auckland. If you are traveling it is right off the Mercer exit. The cheese was incredible.

If you are in the Viaduct and looking for a snack and want to sit outside Dr Audi’s is a good choice. We got the small one foot rectangle Margherita pizza which had one leaf of basil and one cherry tomato on each slice. If you coming here you’re coming for the views and drinks, but snacks ok.

W went here for lunch and just got a simple green salad and bread and cheese. Everything we ate especially the bread was good. Other people plates who had full meals looked very good. Only gave two thumbs up since we didn’t eat full menu. Very pretty little restaurant in the oldest house in Davenport.

Best meal in Auckland. Very busy as reservations highly recommended. Since we had no reservations we had to wait 20 minutes and were told up front we would only have an hour and a half if we wanted to be seated. It was fine but we ended up using the full time as it was a great restaurant. The service was fantastic. The fresh snapper was to die for. Everything we had was delicious.

After flying all day to Auckland we needed a good simple dinner. We ended up at the fox and ended up getting a great tasting smash burger and bbq wings. It’s also a great sports bar. We were able to get American NFL football as well as the NCAA Football. We came back to catch the NFL playoff with some appetizers.

Huge restaurant on the beach serving great wood fire pizzas. Shrimp was good with a kick. Can’t go wrong going here in Waikiki. You will need to make a reservation. Their signature drink the monkey pod Mai tai was much lighter tasting than it looks.

Apparently this is local chain, but you can’t go wrong as we ended up eating at another there restaurants. The Moku Kitchen is in a more residential area of Honolulu. The happy hour was a great deal, but foods is top notch gastronomy pub.

Breakfast at The Royal Hawaiian Hotel. Very good if you are staying there but very expensive for the cost. Check out their bakery as a less expensive option.
