Huapai Roast Meal is a takeaway at Shop 2, 330 Main Road in Kumeū, Rodney, with a Google rating of 4.5 from 81 reviews. Customers mention the roast pork with crackling, the lamb shank, generous portions and the gravy, and say the meals are good value.
A good roast takeaway is judged on crackling that stays crisp, meat that is tender, and gravy that tastes of the roasting tin. Vegetables are a useful test, since they should be cooked through without going soft. Many customers buy meat by weight for a quick dinner, so it helps to ask the price per portion before ordering. Roast meals are best eaten soon after collection, because crackling softens as it cools.
Its Main Road shop makes it a handy stop for a roast dinner without the cooking in Kumeū.
