Forget fine dining, at Tamatanga it's all about doing things differently, with communal tables, orange upholstered stools and placemat menus. Its location near Trinity Square draws its fair share of shoppers, workers and families and its fantastic value for money, so you could leave with a relatively unlightened wallet. Whether it's that super quick office lunch or just overwhelming curry frenzy, your order is taken via a handheld device and networked to the kitchen immediately.

The no-frills menu takes in everything from juicy chicken nibbles and skewered cottage cheese, to crispy prawns and homemade pastry with lamb filling. A bowl of rice or naan bread could be accompanied by Goan fish curry; garlic and fenugreek soaked okra tossed with caramelised onions and masala sauce, or lamb with garlic infused spinach.

Junior diners could choose fishcakes with chips and salad, and the activity sheet on their menu featuring puzzles could keep them busy between mouthfuls.
