Mr. Morris

The 38 Best Restaurants in Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland, New Zealand) | Eater

"Following the closure of Meredith’s in 2017, Mr. Morris represents the long-awaited return of chef Michael Meredith to the Aotearoa dining scene. With touches of Meredith’s Samoan heritage and lots of local ingredients studding the menu, Mr. Morris brings a unique take on modern Aotearoa cuisine to Britomart. For those wanting to feel part of the action, sit up at the central U-shaped bar to peer into the kitchen. On most nights, you’ll find Meredith front and center, sending out a brisk clap through the room to signal the arrival of chicken liver parfait topped with chicken skin bites or crispy quail with mandarin and curry leaf. — HE" - Hillary Eaton
