Taste of New Zealand

This year the Taste food festival incorporated restaurants from around NZ rather than just Auckland, so we got the opportunity to try some yummy food from places we wouldn't normally eat.  This is a Southland rabbit terrine with Riesling jelly.





That dish, along with this, the West Coast whitebait Thai infused fritter, came from True South, a Queenstown restaurant.







Whilst our favourite dish of the day came from new Auckland restaurant Cocoro, chargrilled Angus eye fillet served with teriyaki sauce and carrot puree.






This year there were a couple of international celebrity chefs, including Rick Stein who was attracting big crowds at his Malaysian kitchen tent.
