点评:Amazing cultural and hangi food experience. I had seen Muirs Tours on social media and decided to book an experience. We really wanted to understand more about Maori culture and by visiting Deon and family at Maketu we could actually visit the area where the original Maori people landed and settled.
We then went back and helped to uncover the hangi the food was cooked in a basket over hot river rocks and under banana leaves which made everything juicy and delicious. At every point we were aware of how hangi related to the land, sea and family so everything is done in a sustainable way and without taking too much.
What we learned was given to us in a generous way with storytelling and laughter, we felt like honoured guests almost like family.
I would recommend this tour if you love food and the people who prepare it. I left with memories and extra Kai for dinner.
Thanks Deon and Family we will never forget the experience.
翻译:这是一次令人难忘的毛利文化和地炉烤肉体验。我在社交媒体上看到了Muirs Tours的介绍,于是决定预订一次。我们非常想深入了解毛利文化,而拜访Deon和他的家人在Maketu的住所,让我们有机会亲身探访毛利人最初登陆和定居的地方。
之后,我们回到住所,帮忙揭开地炉。食物是用篮子盛放在滚烫的河石上,用香蕉叶包裹烹制而成,鲜嫩多汁,美味无比。在整个过程中,我们都感受到地炉烤肉与土地、海洋和家庭的紧密联系,一切都以可持续的方式进行,并且尽量减少资源的消耗。
他们慷慨地与我们分享知识,讲述着故事,欢声笑语不断,让我们感觉自己像贵宾一样,如同家人一般。
如果您热爱美食和烹饪美食的人们,我强烈推荐这次旅行。我带着美好的回忆和额外的食物离开了。
感谢Deon和他的家人,我们将永远铭记这段难忘的经历。
