New Zealand's cuisine is extremely varied. The basic cuisine is based on traditional British cuisine. Meals are generally meat based, especially beef, lamb & chicken. However there are plenty of different options, with several other common choices such as Italian, Chinese and Indian in major cities. Major fast food chains operate throughout the country and the fish and chip shop is very common throughout the country.
The Maori have a distinctive cuisine which includes the traditional hangi where meat and vegetables are slow cooked in a pit that has had a fire burn down in it. Seafood, in particular shellfish gathered from the inter tidal zones is also a common dish.
