DEPOT EATERY

The oysters were very delicious. They were small but delicious. It was the first time I ate such delicious oysters. The oysters were 7 New Zealand dollars each. The cod burger was nothing special. I ate too much in the afternoon, so I ordered some for a midnight snack.

Great coffee and hot chocolate. My friend and I had bacon and omelette for breakfast, which was super fresh and delicious. Don't like drinking water from metal containers though, it has an unpleasant metal taste. Glass ones are best.

A popular seafood bar, its specialty is oysters. The local oysters are very big and you can really eat a lot of them. The local specialty lamb chops are very good, similar to the cooking method in food stalls.

After many twists and turns, I walked around the area several times but still couldn't see it. Finally, I stood at the entrance of Skytown and looked up and it was right in front of me. I rushed in. Fortunately, I didn't have to queue up and I could share a table with other people. The food was really delicious. In fact, the menu was very simple with only a few types. I liked the grilled lamb chops as a side dish the most. The heat was just right and the meat was so tender that it melted in my mouth. I ate several plates in a row. Oysters were the signature appetizer. The main course set was very large and it was just right to order a few dishes for everyone to share. The taste was delicious. The price was not expensive at all. The price of this quality in China would be twice as much.

This is a great restaurant. If you arrive before 17:30, you don't have to queue. If you arrive after that, you have to rely on your luck or your patience. The Italian-style food tastes great, and the Asian flavors are also quite satisfying. The only drawback is that the restaurant is not big and there are not many seats. P.S. The waiters are all very good-looking!

The first time, I was going to go to the one next door, but they only had breakfast with refills of American coffee, so I chose this one just a stone's throw away. After entering the door, I realized that it was an oyster bar. The theme was wrong again, but there was coffee. I ordered a small cup of espresso, which looked good with cocoa powder, but tasted sour like lemon. I still can't accept the use of sour beans in milk coffee. The milk quality is really good, but it was paired with the wrong owner. The second time, I really enjoyed the best oyster varieties in New Zealand, and I was very satisfied with one after another. The location is particularly good, and the Sky Tower is right next to it, which is pleasant to just look at.

Behind several famous Auckland restaurants that have won many awards, such as Depot and Best Ugly Bagel, there is the same name, that is Al Brown, New Zealand's "national treasure chef". The most ordered dishes at Depot are oysters, cod burgers and lamb chops. I had a poor appetite that day, so I replaced the lamb chops with fish. The overall taste is good, the oysters and shells are so fresh, and the small biscuits served before the meal are also delicious, because this is the food that is closest to Chinese food. The location is right under the Sky Tower, so you can use the Sky Tower's Wif. There are so many people in the restaurant, including many Chinese tourists, and it is still full at 10 o'clock in the evening. For a popular restaurant, the price is not expensive, and it is about the same as other restaurants of the same level, about 100 yuan per person.

Depot is probably the most popular restaurant in Auckland, with long queues every day. The dishes here are a mixture of cuisines from many places, with their own characteristics. You can taste the innovative combination of Chinese and European cuisine, as well as the fusion of French and American cuisine. The taste is very unique and subverts your imagination. It is definitely worth a try.
