Takapuna Sunday Market

I know for some people markets simply aren’t their cup of tea but I just love them and each Sunday the car park across the road from our flat empties out and all the stalls move in. There’s an element of organised chaos, and a friendly place, full of different nationalities, where regulars meet up each week. There is an array of different things up for grab, lots of fresh fruit and veg stalls, bread, manuka honey, plants, clothing, stationary, second hand stalls selling plates, cups and all sorts of brick a brack, through to the not so standard such as freshly squeezed grass juice and gold fish and tadpoles (not together of course). I can’t put my finger on it but there is something quite fulfilling getting your fruit and veg from a market rather than a main supermarket, and the market is one place I’ll be paying a weekly visit to pick up my basics, and being on my door step, well quite frankly it would be rude not to!
