I love how everyone mentioned food when I'm busy down here trying to dispel the myth that Kiwi food is boring. So, thank you very much for your help!

Eileen- How could I have left out the infamous "Black-sand sprint". I hope your poor blistered feet are doing better? Thanks for all the comments everyone!

Sums Auckland up with such passion, and really gives a true impression from both a visitor's and local's point of view. If you're looking for good cuisine Ponsonby Road has it all, different spices, tastes and flavours to suit everyone. Excellent article!
