Dunedin New Zealand's 'Pacific Rim' cuisine style takes its inspiration from Europe, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Polynesia, Japan and Vietnam. This unique blend of influences has created a mouthwatering range of flavours and food available from cafes and restaurants nationwide. For dishes that have a distinctly New Zealand style look out for lamb, pork and venison; salmon, crayfish, Bluff oysters, paua (abalone), mussels and scallops; kumara (sweet potato); kiwi fruit and tamarillo; and pavlova, our national dessert. As a perfect complement to your meals, try some of New Zealand's award-winning wines. Most restaurants and cafes are licensed to sell wine, and some allow you to bring your own (BYO) bottled wine with you. While BBQs (bar-be-ques) and fish and chips may not be fine dining, your New Zealand cuisine experience is incomplete without enjoying either of these traditional New Zealand meals. Freshly cooked fish and chips (fries), wrapped in paper, are best enjoyed at the beach, while the 'barbie' can be fired up for any occasion. You can also try a Maori hangi, or traditional feast, where food is cooked in a traditional earth oven or steam vent.
