- This is the final video from our Rarotonga, Cook Island series! The Cook Islands is one of the world's smallest countries. This gem in the South Pacific is popular with Kiwi and Aussie travellers and with good reason- it's tropical, easy to get around and fish is in abundance! We spend 10 days on the island exploring the local food and the best eats to hit up when you visit. From the nation's iconic dish- ika mata (raw fish salad) to real fruit ice creams using local fruit like soursop and passionfruit to the best cafes and cheap eats on the island. Stay tuned for some epic Cook Island food!

We’re Thomas and Sheena, food and travel fiends. We travel full time, hunting for the BEST local food in the world to showcase via our RUclips videos. Food is a window into a country's culture and one of the most exciting ways to get to know a place.
We're all about eating what and where the locals eat. You won't find food that's been created merely to be social media worthy on here- no rainbow bagels, gold leaf soft serves- just honest food that tastes incredible.
From street food to mom and pop restaurants, we want to show you the best food we find on our travels.

Those wraps are MASSIVE! One of those would do me for the whole day. The wet burger didn't look all that spectacular, but you wore it well, Sheena. 🤣 This was a great series, and you 3 look like you had plenty of fun and relaxation. Zadie made quite a few fans, it looks like.
Hahaha she did indeed! I didn’t know what to expect with the wet burger but it was definitely way better than expected! I would eat it again for sure 😍 thanks for watching this series MsKestrela- we had a fab time filming in Rarotonga- it was dreamy! Cheers, Sheena

@ChasingaPlate I did have a good breakfast. I made a pork sandwich with egg and tomato on an onion bagel. It was good🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
❤❤❤
Thanks for watching mate, hope you enjoyed the video! Cheers, Sheena
Yummy
Sure was! Thanks for watching. Thomas
Thanks guys. How do you manage to fit in all that food!
😆😆😆 lots of walking! Thanks for watching this one mate. Hope you enjoyed the series! Cheers, Sheena
❤
Thanks for watching mate. Thomas
Hehe lol Sheena & Tom you guys do amazing youtube videos. What you sometimes claim as booboos are natural settings incorporated in the recordings. You sieze to take advantage of an opportunity and turn it into fun. It's not planned but it looks staged, fun. Very cool and exciting. I guess that's why I love it. ❤ OMG the kai experiences, deliciously tasty you 2 make it envious gourmets. Thumbs up 👍 👌
What a lovely message! Thanks so much for your kind words 💜 We’re very much having to go with the flow much more with Zadie on board so we’re super stoked to hear you’re enjoying the content. Hope you like what we have coming up! Thank you for your support! Cheers, Sheena
👍
Thanks mate! Thomas
Wraps looked amazing. Burger looked kinda mid tbh.
The burger sure didn’t win on looks but it was so tasty. The wraps looked and tasted great. Thanks for watching. Thomas.
@@ChasingaPlate Nice one - thanks for replying.
Hamburgers? What about local food...
As we mention this is a 5 part series so we cover a lot of the island favourites. These burgers are a huge part of the local food culture. Thanks for watching. Cheers, Sheena
70% of those wraps is 60 cents worth of lettuce. Same thing as most places in the south pacific, including Australia. Not good value for $$
Hi there. Thanks for watching. Couple of issues with your comment that I would like to clear up. One the wrap wasn't 70% lettuce at all. Second lettuce is very expensive in Rarotonga (I think it gets flown in) so even if the wrap was 70% lettuce it sure wouldn't be 60 cents worth. We saw small lettuces at the supermarket for $12-$15 NZD. Thanks again for watching. Thomas
U sound like u would give good reviews for anything💀
Nah, we do a lot of research before deciding where to film and which spots to showcase and if a meal isn’t up to scratch we just put down the camera. This channel is about highlighting great food and awesome businesses so it’s a positive space. Thanks for watching. Cheers, Sheena
This guy😅🤦♂️
