This afternoon I dropped by Newmarket's latest gourmet food outlet. Originating in Australia, Jones The Grocer opened it's doors yesterday. Judging by the number of people there today it will be a popular addition to the Auckland food scene.
Lots of excellent cheeses to choose from along with the usual deli items plus teas, pastas, chocolates and some rather pretty gingerbed Christmas bikkies. I treated myself to some serrano ham , St Nectaire cheese and a good lump of Parmigiano Reggiano .
There are a few tables available if you want to have coffee or a deli style snack.
