Tested it with a knife to see how hard it was and the pieces are like pebbles and need a meat cleaver to split them. Took cat to vet for extraction under general anaesthetic- cost $750. I'm fuming. Cat won't go near the stuff now even chopped into little pieces and soaked in water and I don't blame him

The blackboard signs outside promise bargains and the parking is vast but like I said, more importantly it was en route. These kinds of shops are everywhere in Auckland now and they are not all created equal. This one is great - lots of fresh fruit and vege with the full complement of Asian greens as well as the usual massive range of chilli sauces, soya sauces, pastes, tinned goods etc. Best of all the pricing is excellent and they have all the essentials - it's no good going to a shop like this if you can't get milk and bread as well. Oh, and $2.99 for a big bag of frozen Edamame beans - bargain!

Fresh does make the world go round. This is a great Fruit World, the produce is always in really…read moregood condition (unless you want to but the really ripe fruits that they package up separately and place at the front and back of the store. They are really cheap and are great for freezing for smoothies, stewing or for making jam). This fruit world has more than just fruit and vegetables but also has a small grocery section too. There is a large section for grains, lentils and other pulses, nuts, dried fruits and spices, all natural and unprocessed. There is also a range of Italian and Japanese ingredients, oils, pastas and canned legumes. They stock fresh wraps, pita bread and they sell tofu. You could probably do most of your shopping here. If this is sounding too healthy there is also a junky section with candy, corn chips and cookie time cookies and I suspect they sell quite a bit of that stuff. The staff at the store are super friendly too and the prices are very good. What more can you ask for really?

When I was working on Queen Street I always came here for fresh fruit salads, fruit, raw nuts and drinks. It is like a hybrid of a grocer, dairy and a fruit store. You can even buy beer and wine here. These guys also had Marmite in stock long after it had left the shelves of supermarkets so I kept it to myself and came here for my Marmite fix. Absolutely the best convenience store in the CBD without a doubt. They even have a shoe shine machine!

As you enter, the supermarket has an ATM machine, dry cleaners, lotto outlet and a florist just through the barriers for the shopper's convenience. There is ample fruit & Vege, small bakery section, endless aisles of products offering plenty of fresh and packaged goods, poultry, dairy and frozen items. Oh, also great wine stockists! Plenty of Pinot, Syrah and Sauvignon Blanc! This place is open 24hrs I think, brilliant parking, 12-item express lanes, self check-out and great discounts with your 'onecard' (loyalty) card! All we need now, is for the staff to smile!

I stopped by this location, just off of Victoria Park, to buy a bunch of goodies for friends and family at home. The store is upstairs, with easy access on all sides. They have a high ceiling with bright lights and well organized aisles - it's easy to find what you're looking for without asking. I first became aware of them due to their excellent beer selection, both cases and singles for sale, which is something I love to take home and share. I also bought many bars of our favorite Whittaker Chocolates; they were also on sale and about a third as much as duty free shops at the airport. If you're a tourist looking for consumables to take home, this is a great spot. Everyone working there was friendly, I appreciated the cashier handling everything with care and explaining the rewards system even though I wouldn't be using it. It's also a convenient walk here from the CBD.

They have long opening hours, from 7am-midnight I think.

This supermarket is used also for a lot of media events - including a catwalk show for 'Stolen Girlfriends Club', NZ Fashion House not so long ago!:) Fabulous location, with ample parking to boot.

It's not where rappers stock up on muffins before "doing a drive-by" (although presumably they must get muffins somewhere). No, Westside Bakery is just a bakery on the west side and self-proclaimed "Lunche Bar" run by a polite Asian couple. The food is catered to truck drivers and road workers and manly men made of steel and brawn. Fried things and pastried things and really good pies and humble filled rolls that are being phased out of Auckland by a fancy Panini Revolution. A fine place to pick up a cheap lunch on the go.

There are two things that are awesome about this convenience store and two things only. Well apart…read morefrom the fact that it's a pretty convenient convenience store, and the prices here are fairly good, but I specifically come here to purchase two items. One of these is Dr. Pepper and cherry Dr. Pepper. If you haven't tried either of these drinks then I strongly suggest that you take a look at your life and change everything about it. The second thing that they sell here are samosas (chicken, vege, and butter chicken); and really cheap samosas too. You'll find them in the pie warmer, and god damn they are good. Their goodness is bolstered by the fact that they are like $1 or something ridiculous. Samosas and Dr. Pepper; that's all anyone ever needs.
