‘Kai Waho’ means outdoor cuisine and when combined with the native surroundings, it is the complete ‘Maori Outdoor Experience’. This is a real opportunity to learn about the indigenous New Zealand Maori. How they existed, how they kept their culture and traditions alive for centuries and how they gathered, stored and cooked food.
Tom Loughlin – tangata whenua (person of the land) is not only passionate about his culture but is also a professional chef and expert hunter/gatherer. Tom uses traditional Maori gathering techniques and cooking methods to create a magnificent hangi feast, while sharing his knowledge and stories.
There are a few unique ‘Kai Waho’ experiences that can be added to a stay at Poronui.
