Off the beaten track but worth the trek in New Zealand

"Te Atatu Peninsula is an area on the rise and leading the charge is The Luscious Food Store. Located just before the main strip of shops, the cafe is defenitely worth the trip as a destination. Relax under the leafy trees, in the large outside area, while the kids play in the sandpit and choose something from the extensive menu. We opted for the snapper cakes that were served with perfectly poached eggs and chilli jam. It was all delicious, and the coffee (Supreme) was great too."

"The Hard to Find Book Shop in Onehunga is my favourite book store in the world. Crammed into the small space is a labrynth of sections spanning from classics to the occult and everything in between. Here you’ll find many treasures and curiosies that will excite even the most jaded of book buyers! If you love books, this is your place."
