    Southmall certainly has it's reputation but if you're in the main Manurewa district it's almost…read moreunavoidable. Southmall is at the centre of Manurewa's public transport, with the main bus stop on the main road, and the train station and mini bus depot behind the building. It is home to the local supermarket, and an Asian food place that uses too much dough in their pork buns. However, there's another place that does some great round pancakes just a stone's throw away and there are two awesome bakeries on either side of the mall (I appreciate the occasional chicken savoury). Southmall is also home to two internet cafes that are pretty reasonably priced and the guys that run them are really helpful if you're having computer troubles or trying to print something last minute. The fruit and vege shop here isn't bad and I get fruit here occasionally when they've got some good deals on. The lotto kiosk here is where I have to top up my train card, so I'm in Southmall every week. From there its just so much easier to pick up what I need from the supermarket before I catch the bus or train to wherever I'm heading. This place is very dated now but it is what it is, and I've got nothing against that.

    This place is a complete dump. Honestly, the only reason why this place still operates is because…read moreit is connected to the train and bus routes. With all the Auckland malls around, this is the last place you'd be tempted to visit. My worst memory here is the night I fell asleep on the train and missed my stop at Homai. So I woke up, panicked with the horrific thought, WHERE AM I?!, and hopped off at Manurewa Train Station. This is Southmall, of course, and it was pitch black, raining and filled with unfriendly looking people. As I stood under the dim streetlight beside the grocery store waiting to be picked up, I couldn't help but feel like I'd wandered into a horror film. Whenever someone looked at me, I busied myself with my phone, almost expecting to be kidnapped. It was all psychological, of course, but it permanently imprinted this place on my brain as one to avoid.
