In the heart of Central Auckland, Chamate Restaurant brings an authentic Asian kitchen to the city centre, where fresh, seasonal ingredients meet time‑honoured technique. The cooking leans into familiar comforts and clean, bold flavours, all carefully prepared and presented with modern clarity.

Handmade dumplings are a quiet star: think har gow prawn dumpling and xiao long bao Shanghai‑style steamed chicken dumpling, pleated with care and steamed to a tender finish. Each mouthful nods to tradition, yet feels right at home in a welcoming, food‑centred setting.

For heartier cravings, the kitchen turns to spice and sizzle. Cumin lamb ribs deliver aromatic warmth, while house signatures of Chamate butter fried chicken, lamb, and fish bring crisp edges and savoury depth. Classics are treated with respect, from Kong Pao chicken to Shanghai‑style sweet and sour chicken, with a seafood combination pot standing by for those who want to dive deeper.

The mood is warm, the focus is flavour, and the location could not be more central. Settle in and explore the menu at your own pace, then let the cooking do the talking — go on, have your dumpling and eat it.
