Some Tauranga and Mount Maunganui Eateries (Bay of Plenty, New Zealand)

February 18-20, 2013

One definite draw to moving down here were the number of eateries in both towns.  There was food from every ethnicity and a lot of it reasonably priced (by New Zealand standards).  We could probably eat here for a year and not eat at the same place twice!

While we were in the area, we enjoyed authentic Mexican cuisine at the Flying Burrito Brothers, excellent fish and chips at Fresh Fish Market, Devonshire tea (Earl Grey tea served with an incredible scone and Devonshire cream) at the Coffee Club, and some very nice and inexpensive sushi.  And that was only in the three days we were here!  We had a lot more places we wanted to try, and and it made the decision to to relocate pretty easy. –Cyndi
