Local market food tour in RAROTONGA, COOK ISLANDS

This is our 4th 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:

Punanga Nui Market, Q6V8+RMJ, Ara Tapu, Avarua, Cook Islands. Open from 8am-1pm (BUT if you want to eat māroro (flying fish) get there at around 6am)

Māroro Tunutunu, fresh tuna, cassava, coconut milk $10
Fruit smoothie $8
Pineapple meringue pie $5
Banana Poke $6
Baby pancakes $6, Baby donuts $5 (+$1 for chocolate sauce)

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 YouTube 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.
