Someone in Auckland ordered Uber Eats 438 times this year

Brian from New Lynn

We can only guess (and hope) this is not the same person who made the most expensive order on Uber Eats in New Zealand this year - $870 for 151 items of Wendy's from Dominion Rd. At the other end of the scale, someone used the app to make the smallest order of the year: a single sachet of … View moreWe can only guess (and hope) this is not the same person who made the most expensive order on Uber Eats in New Zealand this year - $870 for 151 items of Wendy's from Dominion Rd. At the other end of the scale, someone used the app to make the smallest order of the year: a single sachet of ketchup (needs must). The stats also show that Kiwis have a diverse palate. One person managed to try food from 109 different restaurants this year. But still, no matter how much variety we have at the touch of a button, it seems our greatest love, when it comes to takeaways, is still the humble butter chicken. This was the most ordered item via the app in 2018. The item people most searched for in the app was "burgers" (clearly before deciding to go ahead and order a butter chicken anyway). It seems Kiwis are not really that picky. "No onion" was the most common special instruction - followed by "no tomato" and "extra sauce". As for the late-night munchies, the big craving is the classic Big Mac combo - this was the number one choice up and down the country after midnight. Collectively, New Zealanders through Uber Eats ate 505,595 burritos and 653,430 chicken McNuggets this year. A fine effort in not-so-fine dining.

Christmas at the Beach - Blockhouse Bay

Sarah from Blockhouse Bay

So this Sunday night we’re going to be down at the BHB Beach Reserve, with a FREE AND FABULOUS programme for kids from 5pm. Due to the large amount of people last year we’ve got MORE facepainters, MORE balloon twisters, a BIGGER Beach treasure hunt, and all being well a water slide (may want to… View moreSo this Sunday night we’re going to be down at the BHB Beach Reserve, with a FREE AND FABULOUS programme for kids from 5pm. Due to the large amount of people last year we’ve got MORE facepainters, MORE balloon twisters, a BIGGER Beach treasure hunt, and all being well a water slide (may want to pack a change of clothes and a towel for the kids!) that should keep the queues down, as well as the return of the nativity quest with some fabulous prizes.

There is also a FREE BOOK for kids we are giving away whilst stocks last.

Carols start later, and then they are followed by SHANE and the SHAZAM BAND. Shane is a local legend - his number 1 hit St Paul stayed at the top for 6 weeks, and his current band are possibly the best yet, he’s gigging all time and we are so lucky to have them. So dig out your DANCING shoes, and grab a picnic or browse the FOOD TRUCKS.

This event is run by the BHBay Churches, with thanks to our sponsors the Whau Local Board and Ray Whites.

Shuttles run from Iona and Church of the Saviour (Kinross St) carparks for ease of parking, 5pm-6pm and 7pm-9.45pm.
