Poll: Do you think Te Rapa needs more food options?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Food joints are growing on the old industrial sites of Te Rapa.

Construction has begun to transform 675 Te Rapa Rd from the old Total Hire car park to a drive-through Popeyes and Starbucks that is set to open in 2025.

Meanwhile, a new local dumpling house is set to open right opposite it from Monday.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
