I recently had the opportunity to go back to my home, New Zealand, with a bunch of my friends and eat at some of the most incredible restaurants. We also got the opportunity to go fishing with Dion Muirs, do a hungi with the Bird twins, and go on a road trip.

It made me realise how little I know about the food in New Zealand, and I'm now on a mission to discover more. This is a different kind of video for us, but we absolutely loved making it and we really want to know what you think of it in the comments because we'd love to make more videos like this.
