SC - Re: New Zealand cuisine

[Vincent Cuenca]

Lucrezia, you brought back some wonderful memories for me.  I spent seven 
months in New Zealand in 1988-89, working and hitchhiking around the country 
(Cape Reinga to Oban and back!).  Great times for a teenaged Yank; plenty of 
good food and great beer.  I also made a number of Maori friends, so I 
learned to appreciate the fine differences in varieties of kumara, and 
actually got up the stuff to try kina (sea urchin). Still can't handle 
Vegemite, though!

You forgot to mention the ice cream, and pavlova, though.

Thanks again,

Vincent
(can still do the All Blacks haka, given enough beer!)
