A Tauranga restaurant has spiced up the lives of its customers to take away New Zealand's People's Choice restaurant title.
Great Spice in Ōtumoetai received the most votes for the award, put on by online food delivery platform Menulog.
The restaurant that serves Indian cuisine took the top prize out
of the 56 restaurants nominated from across the country.
Owner Khem Aryal said their food was special as it was made "from the heart" and he hoped that shined through when people tried their dishes.
Menulog's commercial director Rory Murphy said the awards were designed to recognise the hard work and success of their restaurant partners.
