Northland's FRESHEST tuatua (clams) | Catch and cooking seafood in New Zealand

This is the second video in our huge Aotearoa New Zealand food series. We’re journeying from the top to the bottom of the country in a campervan, taking you into the heart of our nation’s phenomenal food culture. 

In this video we share an important part of New Zealand’s food identity by gathering food from the land. We’re at the top of Te Ika-a-Māui, the North Island and we're hunting for New Zealand shellfish. We take you to the beach to collect a feed of tuatua, a delicious NZ clam and show you how to cook your catch by whipping up a spaghetti vongole.

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 genuine, authentic food that tastes incredible.

From street food to mom and pop restaurants, we want to show you the best and most authentic food we find on our travels.
