A cluster of eateries, cafés and delis carved out of the old buildings and lanes in the middle of Ponsonby Road. Sizzling Korean, wood-fired Italian, Japanese and acai bowls face each other across shared tables where you spread out whatever you bought. Ponsonby is Auckland's trendy stroll, and this is where it starts. On a sunny weekend morning, people-watching the brunch crowd is half the fun.
