Arguably the best pizza place so far. il buco in Ponsoby Auckland is NOT your average tomato purée, barbeque sauce and frozen ham pizza joint.

A polaroid wall montage of pizza eating customers, no more than 10 chairs, and a rustic look and feel. This place is oozing with character!

Their pizza??!! Fantastic. My favorite would have to be spinaci e gorgonzola - mozzarella, spinach, chilli and blue cheese.

They also have this drink that is made out of melted liquid chocolate. To die for, I say.

Highly recommended.
