Summer School Eating

One day I realised this:

I frequent WAY too many food blogs. Here’s a sprinkling of my favourites:

The Girl Who Ate Everything

Serious Eats

Cupcake Bakeshop (alas, no longer updated)

Unfortunately Palmerston North, my more-or-less hometown, doesn’t offer the wide variety of food that NYC or Europe or any other city with a population of more than 70,000. In fact, the biggest letdown was the closing of the local Gelateria one winter morning. Alright, for a city that rains a good half of the year and produces enough gales to power a moderately attractive fleet of windmills the ice-cream store lasted a fair amount of time. But the cravings...

And SO! When uni called and I moved my then-skinny ass up to Auckland, it was HEAVEN to discover ice-cream readily available and so close to campus. Ah, and the weather is rather perfect for ice-cream gorging on much of the days.

Auckland didn’t the start the food-obsession, but it did open up an opportunity for me to sample a lot more variety (albeit sparingly and cheaply). This blog began as an attempt to catalogue some of the smaller and more affordable student eateries around City Central.

Here we go folks =)
