Topic: Wellington / New Zealand Popular Foods?

Hi guys!

I'm looking for some recommendations on genuine Wellington Foods, but I'm having a hard time figuring it out. For me, eating is an important (& fun) part in getting to know a country. I visited NZ once (I'm from the US) and I savored some interesting dishes while there, although I'm not sure what exactly passes as "traditional" with the locals. If a visitor is curious about Wellington, what popular dishes should one necessarily try? Any ideas? Thanks!

Well, you could try Burger Wellington 2011 | Visa Wellington on a Plate .. a lot of places, a lot of spectacular burgers.

Thanks Kall, I'll give it a try! Issue is I am volunteering for the Food Wiki if anyone here has heard of it - MyCityCuisine.org and am trying to come up with an accurate and interesting list of local / popular foods in Wellington. I've talked to some locals and they gave me a couple of useful ideas. I'm very excited about the project and hope it shall turn out great. If anyone here has some suggestions for me, please go ahead - I'm all ears!
