NUmates Multicultural Grocery Tour

Ready to fill your pantry, discover new favourites, and snack your way across Newcastle? Join NUmates for a delicious day out as we jump on the bus and explore some of Newcastle’s best Southeast Asian grocery stores!
Whether you’re hunting down ingredients from home, keen to try something new, or just love wandering supermarket aisles and discovering hidden gems, this is the trip for you. Expect shelves full of fresh produce, tasty snacks, pantry essentials, drinks, beauty finds, and more.
And due to high demand, we’re also making a Costco stop! Stock up on bulk buys, giant snacks, and all the things you definitely didn’t know you needed.
To top it all off, we’ll enjoy a vegetarian buffet lunch at Bhakti Tree before heading back to campus happy, full, and probably carrying more shopping bags than expected.
