Haukai Bistro - New Plymouth

The lamb ovation was amazing. Compliments to the chef. Service outstanding. Lucky you run a good ship. Always a pleasure to eat at the restaurant with outstanding service.

Lunch at stylish Novotel New Plymouth with my best friend was such a pleasure! Excellent choice in matching textures and flavours! Wine matched too. It was Allan Scott Wines #pinotgris . Had to force myself from ordering the second glass! After all it was only lunch. #myMarketingResearch had made me investigate Governors restaurant. Reinforced by two male companions we worked through the menu. Lovely music from their piano bar. Recommended starter Japanese inspired prawns with Edamame beans and coconut broth. Best of all smiles from our friendly waiter.

The dining staff made our visit special. Then the Chef Shabbah delighted us with his culinary skills in producing food that was so special.

We were welcomed and looked after by each staff member exceptionally well. The food was also very nice. Lovely and very special evening. Amazing staff!!7

We went for a Trust the Chef Tuesday 4-course meal and the food and service was fantastic. We’ll be back again!
