Fodor's Expert Review Sri Puteri

Panmure is one of Auckland's down-at-heel suburbs that is starting to come into its own as petrol prices rise and people realize it's on the train line. And the Malaysian restaurant run by recent migrants from that country is a surprising hit in a suburb where many people are unemployed or living on low wages. You will eat the best selection of curries within 15 km (9 mi) with the friendliest service. It gets really busy and you might be forced to share a table with other customers who might not speak English. The Sirop Limau, a rose-and-lime-syrup drink, is a refreshing starter before ordering Malaysian style noodles or more traditional curries. The fish head curry is unbelievable and the prices very cheap for the quality of the food.
