Pacific island food often relies on slow cooking, rich sauces and bread that soaks up the juices. A lamb bun is best eaten warm, soon after it is made, when the meat is tender and the bread is soft. Ask how a dish is cooked and what is in the sauce, especially if you have a food allergy. Regulars often order the same favourite each visit, so they know what to expect.
Mr Lamb Buns suits Flat Bush and east Auckland people who want slow-cooked lamb buns and Pacific treats close to home.
