What's New In Town!The latest read in town, Book Hunters, the charming and quant book shop, recently purchased by Cameron & Sumita Dale.
Names sound familiar? A vibrant couple not shy of a project, once the stars of the popular TV show Grand Designs NZ for their romantic construction of a ‘light station’. Continuing their romantic visions, the Book Hunters store on Ridgway Street will keep its nostalgic charm with a Dale stamp. Plans to make use of the high ceilings with ladder access, leaning stations, ‘if you can’t find a book, they’ll find it for you’ attitude and the smell of filtered coffee will attract book lovers from around the city. Sumita like many others, enjoys the feel of turning the pages in a book, ‘Many people spend hours on a device, there’s something special about zoning out with a paper book’. A sentiment many people agree with. The couple encourages book hunters to purchase a coffee from neighbouring cafes, slow down, relax, and enjoy the mass variety of books on offer. 65 Ridgway Street, Whanganui. |
