A deli and butchery at 3/60 Aviation Avenue in Mount Maunganui. It makes its own chorizos, bacon and smoked patties by hand, and sells South American cuts such as picanha and vacío. Customers can eat in or take away, with smoked cheeseburgers, hot dogs, pork belly rolls and a special from the grill each week. The website says the chorizos come in Uruguayan, Argentinian and Chilean styles and are gluten free. Catering covers buffets, canapés, a food trailer and taco stations for events, and meat platters are also offered. The website lists hours as Tuesday to Friday, 9am to 3pm, with the kitchen open until 2:30pm. We hear this week's grill special is Uruguayan chorizo in a crusty roll with chimichurri, and it is not on the regular menu.
Reviewers mention the pork belly roll most often, followed by chorizos, hot dogs and a sausage making class. One customer said the pork belly roll was generous, crisp and tender, and one of the better ones they had eaten. Another ordered a meat platter for their daughter's wedding morning and said the meat was flavourful and the rolls were warm. A regular says they come in for a smoky cheeseburger and the weekly special, and another found the pork belly perfectly crackled and the atmosphere friendly.
