New Zealand cooking features lamb, dairy and seafood, including green-lipped mussels, bluff oysters and crayfish, and a butcher's counter is where much of that lamb is bought. Traffic drives on the left across New Zealand, and hire cars are the usual way to travel on the larger islands, so a car makes the shop easy to work into a day out. The country has a temperate maritime climate, so summers are mild and winters rarely bring snow at low altitude.
