We partnered with the Dominion Road Business Association to bring you this content. All restaurants featured were chosen by us. A big thank you to Mr Hao, Maya BBQ and Hot & Spicy Pot who shouted us our meals- they refused to let us pay.

Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland has a dynamic, varied and delicious food scene. If you love to eat, this is the city for you. In this 5 part video series we’re taking you to our favourite spots along Dominion Road- Auckland’s iconic street for tasty, affordable eats.

We head to Mr Hao to tackle a gigantic plate loaded with over 200 chillies tossed with fried chicken wings, lotus root, chips and rice cakes, we hunt down a unique eating experience of malatang where you pay for your food by weight before its thrown into a spicy, numbing broth at Hot & Spicy Pot and share one of the world’s oldest street foods, shaokao- chinese bbq skewers loaded with fragrant spices and cooked over charcoal at Maya BBQ.
