Food Alley, Auckland

The food here is definitely the best to be found in the entire Auckland whether you are comparing food, price or location. The variety spoils you crazy and the authenticity of the food is amazing as compared to the real thing in Asian cities and the stall holders are amazingly humble and friendly and extremely good cooks! Eating in Food Alley has a totally family atmostphere, the first floor is perpetually packed day and night for customers who just want a quick lunch to fill their tummies. If you would prefer a more leisurely lunch, simply find a seat on the second floor where drinks are also sold, and you can enjoy your food in a quieter corner or even read a book with a coffee or yummy smoothie. Recommended stalls include the beef noodle stall and japanese food on the second floor, and the thai, korean, japanese and chicken rice stall on the first floor. Claypot's also a hot favourite, as well as the wide variety of drinks and concoctions at super reasonable prices at Alleycats, the bar on the first floor. Definitely worth a visit when you are in Auckland!
