Korean Job Discussion Forums

I'm putting together some lessons for a group of about 14 students who are NZ-bound next month for a month. These are rural Korean kids (grade 1&2 middle school) who for the most part have never traveled outside Korea. They'll be doing home stays with NZ families, attending some classes in schools there, & doing a bit of touring.

Among other things, I'm planning to have them research a list of some common NZ foods. Problem is, I really have no idea myself beyond what I can glean from wiki.

What should this list include? Indigenous or imported I dont think matters, more importantly just new (to them) & interesting foods common there that they'll probably be served at some point.

Tentative items: roast lamb, fish & chips, meat pies, hangi food(?), pavlovas, hokey pokey ice cream, & [your input sought]...

Thanks for any help!

The list you have there is pretty much exactly what I'd put.

I guess you could add :
BBQ, especially sausages.
Manuka honey
Pineapple Lumps (Choc covered pinapple flavoured candy)
Whitebait fritters
Paua

I suppose all of those things are just as Australian or British as they are Kiwi, aren't they?

NZ doesn't really have a developed cuisine. And since the influx of Asian immigrants in the 1990s it's become all very "Asia-Pacific" fusion style.

So wait, am I chasing the bird or the fruit? Where is this? San Francisco?
