Double Happy Chinese Takeaways is a neighbourhood Chinese takeaway at 232 Edmonton Rd in Te Atatu South, west Auckland, carrying a 4.5 rating on Google — the kind of shop you call in on the way home for a hot dinner.
The best Chinese takeaways cook to order, so sweet and sour pork arrives with batter that still crunches and fried rice straight from a hot wok rather than a warmer. The Kiwi-Chinese repertoire runs deep — chow mein, wonton soup, spring rolls, honey chicken — and regulars tend to settle on two or three dependable dishes. Because everything is made fresh, Friday and Saturday evenings get busy, so locals phone orders in early and time the pickup. A steady stream of neighbourhood regulars is the surest sign you have chosen well.
For Te Atatu South households after an easy takeaway night, Double Happy on Edmonton Rd is a natural local choice.
