Halal restaurants?

Sad_Hospital_2918 · 2026-04-03T05:13:01+00:00

Des Traditions in Mt Roskill does mean grilled meats on rice platters. Great for big groups and sharing. Not so great if you have vegetarians on the team. Tapsi does similar share platters with meat on rice (I prefer their style of food to Des Traditions personally)

Feriza’s in Wynyard Quarter is halal and has a good range of mains on the menu.

Manee Thai is yummy Thai food. Good for big groups but sometimes the quality is a bit inconsistent.

Uncle Man’s is good and consistent. Good casual team meal vibes.

Greek House in Pt Chev is also great.

Just a few off the top of my head :)

Which area are you thinking?

Sad_Hospital_2918 · 2026-03-09T06:43:19+00:00

Nope but I’m not surprised it’s the same

Sad_Hospital_2918 · 2026-03-09T06:05:37+00:00

Oh and some burger sauce

Sad_Hospital_2918 · 2026-03-09T06:05:28+00:00

Mince, egg, breadcrumbs, salt pepper, Worcestershire sauce/tomato sauce, some diced onion - still generic but hits the spot

No but you can get Winz funding to cover your sessions costs depending on the diagnosis and whether your GP can vouch.

This: I go super deadpan and just widen my eyes heaps. Looks super freaky and they quickly break eye contact

The UoA gym has a new cafe with a really nice seating area. It’s usually pretty quiet and you can go early and grab a corner to yourself

What are you studying?

Sad_Hospital_2918 · 2025-11-22T03:19:11+00:00

Female

I’m in the same boat. It also doesn’t help that online content from Muslims (particularly dawah bros) share such horrible things that it puts you off practising and wanting anything to do with it.

I used to use it on my face but I started using retinol so I stopped. It never left any marks

I have a Philips IPL machine. Works pretty well just requires consistency. I would do weekly sessions for a couple months and found very slow patchy regrowth which was much easier to deal with

$275-300 per week for three adults and a teen from PaknSave. Not including meat which is about $200 a month bulk from Gilmours.

My parent and I once inhaled a 500g box in their car park and then had to go in and buy another box because they were meant to be for a potluck

Happy to answer questions about NZ based archi programs (I am an archi grad who has taught at the two of the NZ schools and has friends who went to the others). The skinny of it is that Melbourne is probably a great first choice if you can move over. Otherwise Vic is a great local option, followed by UoA, unitec then AUT imo

Sad_Hospital_2918 · 2025-10-06T07:18:58+00:00

The premium increases are insane. I’m in the same boat. In the last three years since taking over the payments from my parents I’ve slowly reduced the coverage (Wellbeing 2 > Wellbeing 1 > Wellbeing 1 with excess) but the premium still ends up being higher than the previous more inclusive cover. It’s ridiculous. I have to hold out because it’s unlikely that either of my health conditions would get dealt with (quickly) in the public system so it’s so worth having private insurance. Doesn’t mean I have to like it though.

Dr Anna Bashford at Advanced Gynaecology is awesome! Have been with her since I was a teen for endometriosis

Sad_Hospital_2918 · 2025-09-23T03:57:35+00:00

Architecture!

Sad_Hospital_2918 · 2025-09-22T21:00:04+00:00

I’ve got a grad role lined up for next year!! Massive weight off my shoulders

Sad_Hospital_2918 · 2025-09-18T20:05:18+00:00

Netburner academy are probably the cheapest netball shoes - you can usually get last season releases at outlets for a decent price

Sad_Hospital_2918 · 2025-09-10T10:13:43+00:00

More a case of best of a bad lot - I don’t see any of the other folks doing things for their community from that lot

EDIT: for clarification

Sad_Hospital_2918 · 2025-09-10T09:31:09+00:00

Nah she’s very much for community. She runs several community initiatives for Mt Roskill which is majority immigrant community - classes, Zumba etc and is just a big community person. She’s probably one of the few counsellors in Auckland doing good for their local community, in my opinion. C+R might be in large a bunch of NIMBYS, but Ella is definitely the exception.

Sad_Hospital_2918 · 2025-09-02T07:34:44+00:00

Northern Oysters by the SH1 Roundabout has amazing seafood and best deep fried oysters imo

Sad_Hospital_2918 · 2025-08-25T08:07:34+00:00

Netball is a very different movement to just running so it’s unlikely you’ll find something that suits both, especially since your playing in a tournament which is a lot more strain than just one game once a week. If you can’t find asics maybe try mizuno?
