Taste in the City
A food village in the heart of Auckland
Victoria Park is a bustling hive of people, smells, sights, sounds and most importantly: tastes, as Taste of New Zealand sees thousands of food lovers visit today for another sumptuous lunch session. The sun is out, there’s a lovely breeze and the vibe is merry, AND there are still five sessions left! It’s incredible that this veritable village of food, wine and entertainment is nestled right in the heart of Auckland’s Big Little City. Bring on the dinner session!
