Central Otago goodies


My recent requests for Central Otago eating recommendations, relayed to my friendquaintances across various social media, were greeted with an icy silence. So, for anyone interested, here's some recommendations I discovered by myself over the last couple of weeks roaming through that part of the country (which was rather icy and silent itself).

Soul Thai takeaway in Grey Lynn

We don't want for much in the lucky suburbs of Herne Bay, Ponsonby, Grey Lynn and Westmere, but we sure could use some decent takeaway options. Many is the evening I've driven forlornly through the neighbourhood, half an hour in the car to save myself fifteen minutes in the kitchen, hoping I'll come across a cheerful Mexican, a plucky Laotian or a busy fingered Israelite to serve me inexpensive, tasty grub from their homeland.
