Best places: General stores in Devonport-Takapuna, New Zealand

🫤 I had heard good things about the General Store takeaways so my hopes were high. Pros: *The fish was undeniably fresh, a rare find these days. * Service was prompt, with little waiting time.

😠 Staying at the near by hotel and just brought some NZ snacks as I'm leaving in the morning and wanted to get my last fix. Should have checked the dates on the fabulicious, one bite and thought something was off. Out of date by over 7 weeks.
