to new destinations can indeed turn a new leaf for you. Food Trails that unveil
a signature appeal of the littleknown cultural eating habits of
a country can be great fun and often turn out to be revelatory and informative.
No wonder, ‘Culinary Trails’ is a trend that’s promising large
tourism-based interest from visitors.
Unique celebratory preparations with
local produce is a mark of selfsustaining economy. It is a healthier and

TRY HANGI, REWENA, KINA AND
LOCAL BREWS
Region: New Zealand
There is much on the food platter in New Zealand,
thanks to its historical influences. Evident being the native Maori
culture. The meals are a fabulous amalgamation of New American cuisine,
Southeast Asian, East Asian, and South Asian culinary traditions. You can sign
up signature itineraries that take you with a guide to a
location near a geothermal geyser for great views and there
you could dine with a native family as they share their
cultural influx and food. The list of must-try Maori foods includes the Hangi, which
is prepared in an earthen oven with boiled pork, potatoes,
kumara and dumplings. Also distinctive is ‘Rewena’ (Maori bread),
which is made with fermented potatoes. Kina is a delicacy made
of sea urchin with a hard spiky outer shell and thin fleshy edible insides.
While restaurants are a big attraction for travellers
here with many vegetarian options, a local family may invite you over a dinner. It
is considered the main meal of the day. It is at this time that family
members gather and enjoy their evening together.
