Dunedin -- named with the Gaelic version of Edinburgh -- is steeped in Scottish immigrant history. This stunning Edwardian city is wrapped up in its food history founded on surprising culinary innovation. It is also a celebration of beautiful architecture and boasts stories of some colorful characters.
This fun walking tour of the city takes in the oldest parts of the city center and the rejuvenated warehouse precinct near the harbor.
Taste locally-caught seafood endemic to this part of the country -- this taste treat is supplied by none other than the oldest fish-and-chip shop in New Zealand.
Hear how local butchers champion the farmers working Dunedin's rural hinterland and taste-test some delicious savory meat pies (a New Zealand favorite and a must-do).
Learn about the local farmers' market, which has brought artisanal ideas to the local foodie scene, and discover how the closure of a huge factory right in downtown Dunedin inspired this enterprising city to create its own chocolate.
Meet the ladies who turn bread into gin and discover how the deep Scottish roots of the rising hospitality stars of the city have inspired locally-made whisky and haggis.
Tasting your way through this city is an inspired way to spend your day.
