This is the first 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!
What we ate and where we ate it:
1. Bite Time Cafe, Punanga Nui Market. Open Monday 8:30am to 4pm and Tuesday to Friday 8:30am to 9pm. Ika Mata $, Mahi Mahi with chips and salad $25
2. We just found out that as of 29 May 2024 the Mooring Fish Cafe has closed!
3. Wigmore's Superstore, P6P5+CPH, Ara Tapu, Takitumu District, Cook Islands. Open 24 hours. Real fruit ice creams $6

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 RU-vid 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.

Check out Niue, the Japanese Restaurant there was voted number 17 in the world a few years back,our Raw fish isn't as convoluted as the Raro version,just Fish,limes and Spring Onions. I know you will love Uga(Fresh Coconut Crab,and Takihi, thin layers of Taro and Pawpaw,covered in freshly grated Coconut cream, semi sweet savoury dish.
@ChasingaPlate
@ChasingaPlate Месяц назад
Omg Uga sounds delicious! Would love to get to Niue one day- bet the fresh seafood and fruit is delicious there as well. Thanks for watching mate. Cheers, Sheena

Kia ora Sheena Thomas and Zadie🤗🤗 wow!! Rarotonga! Amazing and with baby awesome💞💞 Zadie was very vocal watching you eating that grilled mahimahi😋🤭 Mooring Cafe food looked just as delicious. Thanks for sharing your Cook Island holiday God bless💛💚❤️🙏💞 p.s. did the lady at Mooring Cafe make an honest mistake which happens no dramas saying "Good boy" about Zadie? Or was that my miserable failing hearing generally 🤣🤣 she was super nice though Sheena. Anyhooo... bless❤️❤️
@ChasingaPlate
@ChasingaPlate Месяц назад
😂😂😂 I think she did- Zadie gets mistaken for being a boy all the time 😆 She was so into all the seafood we ate in Raro- it was fun travelling with her! Thanks for watching this one Lisa- so happy you enjoyed it 💜💜💜💜 Cheers, Sheena

Is the fish raw cooked before adding the coconut cream?
@ChasingaPlate
@ChasingaPlate Месяц назад
It’s cooked in the acid of the lime juice before the coconut cream is added so the flesh firms up a bit and becomes opaque. Quite delicious! Thanks for watching! Cheers, Sheena
