Pedro's does exactly one thing, and they do it perfectly. This is the ultimate 'no-fuss' roast lamb that has gained a cult following for its fall-off-the-bone tenderness and consistent quality.
Consistently named in the Metro Top 50, this bistro offers a sophisticated yet warm atmosphere. Their roast lamb is famous for its generous portions and the chef's ability to blend classical techniques with global flavors.
While not a 'traditional' Sunday roast, Cassia's lamb is a culinary landmark in Auckland. Chef Sid Sahrawat uses a charcoal-powered tandoor to achieve a smoky, charred exterior that traditional roasting can't replicate.
