Aunty Mena's

March 20, 2012
Carla together with Pip raving nigh Aunty Mena's, I knew I had to brave the weather.

Aunty Mena's is a Wellington institution, serving upwards cheap, vegan Malaysian together with Chinese nutrient for at to the lowest degree the final decade (and belike longer - it's got a timeless form of experience to it). The carte du jour is gigantic, amongst nigh fifty unlike dishes to lead from. With nobody to portion with, ordering was tricky - I ended upwards deciding to overeat together with ordered an entrée (BBQ pork buns, $7NZ) together with a master copy (veggie chicken laksa, $14NZ).

They were both fantastic - calorie-free together with fluffy buns stuffed amongst a smoky bbq mock-meat together with a thick, creamy laksa loaded upwards amongst tofu, mock chicken, noodles together with veggies. The laksa belike wasn't quite every bit expert every bit the vegan laksa from Laksa King, but it was withal pretty damn excellent. I somehow ate everything I ordered, appreciating the deliciousness long later I truly needed to eat whatever to a greater extent than food. The service is friendly together with efficient, spell the infinite itself is pretty rudimentary, but it's all nigh the nutrient hither - for a tick over xv Australian dollars I ate myself dizzy together with (slowly) walked dorsum to the hotel feeling really pleased amongst myself.

Aunty Mena's has a really positive online reputation - I knew nigh it cheers to Melbourne vegans Pip together with Carla, but it's every bit good been given the thumbs upwards by: Purposeful Mention, vegan vaginas, Ellice Street Gallery Kitchen together with An Auckland Vegan.
