🍽️ Lunch at Little Creatures.
📍 Hobsonville, Auckland
📅 3 June 2026
For two hungry people, we ordered 3 entrées, 2 sides and Frozen Margaritas… and nearly exploded! 😅
🍹 Frozen Margarita ($16)
The absolute surprise star of the day. Perfectly icy, refreshing and dangerously easy to drink, with a great balance of citrus, sweetness and tequila. They were so good that we ordered two each—which tells you everything you need to know!
⭐ Favourite Dish: Mushroom & Mozzarella Arancini ($21)
Crispy on the outside, creamy truffle mushroom filling on the inside, sitting on a rich mushroom cream and buried under freshly grated Parmesan. Absolutely outstanding.
🐟 Fish Crudo ($24)
Fresh market fish with citrus, hazelnut and herb oil. Beautifully presented and packed with freshness. Personally, I’d swap the preserved lemon for lemon caviar pearls or lemon zest for a brighter finish.
🫙 Chicken Liver Parfait ($21)
Rich, smooth and delicious. Bonus points for unlimited sourdough toast refills! The cornichons paired perfectly with the parfait, balancing the richness beautifully.
🍟 Beef Fat Fries ($13.50)
Massive portion and highly recommended. The fries were the star here—golden, crispy and dangerously addictive.
🥗 Harvest Salad ($14)
Fresh and refreshing, but I found the dressing lacked the acidity and brightness I expect from a lemon vinaigrette.
Overall: 9/10 🌟
💡 Tip: For 2 people, 2 entrées, 1 side and a Frozen Margarita (or two!) is plenty.
