A butcher's counter of this kind suits visitors self-catering in holiday accommodation, where local lamb, dairy and seafood are staples of the New Zealand kitchen.
Summer falls from December to February and winter from June to August, so the seasons run opposite to those in the northern hemisphere. Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast, which makes the region worth more than a quick stop. Rugby union is followed closely nationwide, and the national team plays in black, so a match weekend can fill local bars and restaurants.
