Things are looking bright for the inaugural Island Time on Motutapu on March 27 and 28.
After COVID pushed the event into the new dates from February, organisers were faced with the difficult task of replacing popular vendors Captain Kaimoana and Baby G Burger (who had scheduled events for the new dates). The shining light came in the form of BETTER BURGER who heeded the calls to head to Motutapu for this weekend’s Island Time on Motutapu event.
Using fresh, locally sourced ingredients in packaging that doesn't cost the earth; Better Burger has been a popular Auckland establishment since 2014. Island Timers can enjoy their simplistic yet delicious take on burger classics; Cheeseburger, Double Cheeseburger and Mushroom burger, paired with fresh-cut, skin-on Fries or finger-licking Fried Chicken.
And the legends from SAINT ALICE have announced an extended menu for their Oyster and Espresso Martini Bar offering a wide range of Saint Alice classics, such as The 'Holy Cow' Beef Roll and the The 'Prawny Boy' Hoagan Roll. And you wouldn’t truly be on Island Time without slurping down a delicious range of Bluff Oysters (subject to availability) and Cloudy Bay (Marlborough) Tua Tuas, all the while, enjoying some scrumptious Jumping Goat Espresso Martinis.
