Let’s see how people review this restaurant

“In the Ponsoby area, this is the perfect place to grab a quick snack or a light breakfast before you get going. They have a small stall in the food market and an expansive menu of sweet and savory crepes. I went with a simple passion fruit curd crepe, while my boyfriend was more adventurous with a maple and bacon topped crepe. The base crepe is thin, light, and only just slightly sweet (which I think is pretty good, as far as crepes go). The passion fruit curd was delightfully tart and was, in my opinion, a perfect topping. To add even more to your experience, they serve the crepe on a wood block with a dainty pizza cutter for what can only be described as an instagram-able plating experience.” — Laura S.

“I think half the fun is watching the creeps be made. It's like an art in itself.
The only other place I've had a crepe was in France, and these were just as wonderful. The only downside is having too many options. No matter what I were to choose, there'd be someone ordering a different sweet or savory that I'd wished I'd ordered. In this case, I was craving something sweet and got the strawberrys and caramel Nutella...then saw the "savory" ham, cheese, egg and carmalized onion one my brother bought and wanted to switch when he wasn't looking. I guess the solution to my dilema would be to go in a group and order a bunch of sweet or savory, then share. The location of Crepes a gogo is right on the water and in the middle of everything so you can also order pizza or nachos right next door and make a meal of it all.” — Laura C.

“I love this place ! I go here often, especially when I am on the run and needing somethin quick and easy. It was the last & first place I visited when I travelled overseas for a few months... I missed it THAT much.” —Keryn F.

2. The Engine Room

They always cook with seasonal ingredients, sourcing them from local growers or growing them themselves whenever possible. While using high-quality produce and employing skilled cooking techniques are essential to creating great dishes, they believe that the best meals are also about the overall experience. Every dish is inevitably connected to a memory, such as where you ate it, who you were with, the surroundings, the weather, or the ambience. All of these factors contribute to the taste of a dish.
