About

Auntie Dai's Dumplings serves South Island from 129 Riccarton Road, Riccarton, Christchurch 8041, New Zealand, a fast food address in the city's western suburbs.

A 3.9 out of 5 average from 221 reviews gives a fair picture of how diners receive the place, with the volume of feedback suggesting a well-trafficked spot. Riccarton Road is a main artery through Christchurch, so the venue is within easy reach for anyone based in the city, while travellers coming from Queenstown, Dunedin, Nelson, Blenheim, Wanaka, Te Anau or Kaikoura will find Christchurch the natural stopping point on a South Island circuit.

Christchurch sits on the eastern side of the South Island and serves as the island's main gateway for arrivals by air. The fast food format suits a quick meal rather than a long sit-down.

Seasons here run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August, so packing should follow the southern calendar. Fish and chips, meat pies and flat whites are everyday takeaway staples across New Zealand, and te reo Māori place names appear throughout the country alongside English.
