Meet Mel and Tina
Tāmaki locals Melema'u (Mel) and Tina own Melina’s Takeaway, in Panmure.
“We’ve had so much support from the community. It’s been great to be able to start a business in an area we know and love so well, and bring a bit of the islands to people living far from home.”
There are around 900 businesses in Tāmaki. Together they create community, character, and local jobs. Whenever you can, shop where it makes the most difference.
Read more about Mel and Tina (and other local business legends like them) on the Tāmaki AKL website.
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
