Piko

Oh yes, AUT’s very own restaurant! Serving everything delicious and cheap, fantastic! As an AUT student, I never graced Piko restaurant with my presence in first year but come second year I was a regular. It all happened one cold morning, after one of those silly 8am classes that nobody likes. That particular morning I had been running late, so I hadn’t had breakfast.
A friend of mine suggested that we go to Piko to try out their bitchin’ pancakes. I was keen to try out these pancakes and when I ordered them I was not disappointed. For something that cost $ 6 there sure was a lot of goodness and elements.
The second time I went to Piko, they had stopped selling the pancakes. I don’t know why because man those things were amazing! So I settled for bagel, avocado, cream cheese and bacon. This at the time cost $ 6, the price has gone up to $ 7 but still even at that price it is a steal.
I mean where else in Auckland can you buy breakfast for $ 6 that isn’t a shitty muffin and watered down coffee? That’s right nowhere.
The bagel is toasted fresh, the cream cheese is plenty, the bacon is crispy and the avocado is delicious. For $ 7 is is more than worth every cent.
