One American living in our beautiful country Aotearoa with his fam reckons he's found "the best burger in NZ", and it just so happens to be in Otautahi.
Posting to TikTok, Joshua Profit (@fatherprofit) shares his honest review of the unique Maori & Island cuisine at the Kai Means Food restaurant.
He made special mention of their hangi burger made up of a hangi pattie, cuttings of lettuce, tomato, onion and t-sauce all in a fried bread bun.
Oh and don't forget about the addition of chips and gravy on the side - talk about yum!
As Joshua begins to delve into the cultural kai experience, he struggles to get a grip on the massive burger, which is always a good sign!
He takes his first bite followed by a speechless shock.
After a moment of silence, he explained: "Y'all. I'm speechless. The meat in this hangi meat is so unique and the fried bread is the perfect bun."
Many were quick to send love to the TikToker for embracing "our country and culture" here in Aotearoa.
One fan wrote: "I love you love our food. love your content my bro."
"Welcome to NZ!! stuffing all that goodness," wrote another.
While a third joked: "Stop eating or you'll never go home."
Honestly, the burger looks meeaann, but to call it NZ's best burger is a very bold claim. Looks like I'm gonna have to ask my boss for a trip to Otautahi, you know, to confirm this news once and for all!
