Walking around Auckland's viaduct was an experience that B and I had never done since It had been built many years ago. There was so much to see, so many restaurants/bars/cafes and it's the home of where the America's Cup was held. We looked around to see where we could eat lunch but most places had pricing for an entree over $40 NZD which is ridiculous.
We ended up finding an Irish bar/restaurant named Danny Doolans that was advertising a lunch special of $19.95 for steak, chips, gravy and vegetables of your choice so that to us was a great bargain.
This is the meal we were served in the end - it was huge for us, we never usually eat that much and it tasted divine so next time we are up that way we will visit them again. Lucky for us while were were in Auckland for the first 3 days the weather was so warm, we were walking around in t-shirts.

40 dollars Entre is a crime!
We can sometimes find a special like that, a steak for AU$20 but it will usually be about 200 grams and not really a great steak, so your pub steak is a bargain.
Sounds familiar, we don´t eat much anymore, either. Old peeps, huh? ;-) But great you found something nice after all!
The meal looks and sounds delicious. Extra tasty when you know you're getting a good price too!
I´m glad you found this place with delicious food at a reasonable price.
It isn't much better here either. Going out has become very expensive here too, regardless of whether you're talking about going out for dinner or visiting a theater or something like that. I'm glad you found a nice and cheap spot.
Forty bucks for lunch is way too much. You did very well with your steak. That looks really good. I'm glad you had a nice time exploring.
Thank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. ♥
...and here this would be a bargain too.
That sounds like a great restaurant. Glad you found it.
The pub looks very interesting, lots of character. Good for you finding a good deal. Spotted you on a mutual friends blog and thought I'd pop in for a visit. It's always fun meeting new bloggers.
The meal looks delicious 😋
