    • Not that it needs any pimping by us, but thought you should know that Wagamama in the Meridian building on the Waterfront is giving away free noodles today from 12 - 2.00pm.  We are talking don buri, udon and beef noodle salad here people, well worth waiting in line for if you have the time.   Behold the line at 11.30am last year....

    • The Wellingtonista
    • I spent two weeks living on the 28th floor of a hotel in Tokyo when I was ten, and ever since then, I have been obsessed with hotels. As you probably know, here at the Wellingtonista, we're also very fond of free food and drink, so when the Travelodge invited us to for Cocktails & Canapes, of course we responded enthusiastically.

    • Kapiti Playhouse Inc
    • After years of trying to work a live performance schedule around All Black Tests and Super Rugby fixtures, guitarist Andrew London has decided to try a different approach, and deliberately offer a ‘rugby free’ alternative for those who are either unmoved by the oval ball’s adventures, or are happy to record the game and come out for some pre-match entertainment.
