[@nordmom9524]

Food looks great. But the landscapes are just gorgeous! ❤️

[@ChasingaPlate]

Aren’t they just jaw dropping?! The scenery down there is crazy- nature on steroids! Thanks for watching and commenting on this one Sheri 😄 Cheers, Sheena

[@leonsam4g]

Breathtaking views of Queenstown with those burgers are just awesome :)

[@ChasingaPlate]

Totally agree mate! It’s picture postcard!! 😍 thanks for watching and commenting on this one- hope you enjoyed this video! Cheers, Sheena

[@sarahhorne9768]

Thank you for sharing this!!! I’m headed to Queenstown in two weeks to visit my brother and I think I’m most excited to try all the food!

[@ChasingaPlate]

Exciting! Have you been before? It’s such a special place and how neat you also get to be with family while there. Thanks so much for watching this one. Cheers, Thomas 😀

[@stevealcornmusic]

I was there in February of 2019, had a Fergburger, several pies, and some gelato at Mrs. Ferg. Loved Queenstown, and got to play some music and sing down by the lake.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Sounds like you did it justice. Good work! Thanks very much for watching this one. Cheers, Thomas 😀

[@mrjackbilbo]

Eating ferg by the lake is unbeatable,. Greatest food with the greatest view

[@ChasingaPlate]

Totally agree mr jack. That view never gets old 😍 thanks for watching and commenting on this one! Cheers, Sheena

[@karenglaicar5486]

Wow!! What a beautiful place. The food looked so good. Thanks for taking us there.

[@ChasingaPlate]

It’s drop dead gorgeous 😍 So happy you were able to travel with us Karen, thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you get to visit one day! Cheers, Sheena

[@frederickwilliam7]

Karen, would you like to try out some lovely Denmark and foreign recipe…?

[@audhdgamer]

Omg I’m so happy to see this! I’m from NZ but I moved to Australia when I was young.. I’m going to the South Island for the first time with my husband next year to Queenstown! So this just makes me so happy and excited watching this video! We will definitely be checking out these places now!! 😍😍👌🏾

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi Symoné Winiana Ranapia, oh yay that's so awesome! You guys are going to have such an amazing trip- bet you can't wait! So happy that our video will be able to help with your eating itinerary 😍 Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment! Hope you enjoy the rest of the content on our channel! Cheers, Sheena

Awwww wow thanks heaps for replying back!!! Yes Ive subscribed as I’m a real foodie hehe.. and I love your videos!! Xx

[@frederickwilliam7]

How long you been out of NZ and did you visit Queensland yet?

[@audhdgamer]

@@frederickwilliam7 I moved here in 2007 when I was 12! So a long time now! And yes I visited the South Island for the first time it was absolutely beautiful!

[@kelliesquire2981]

Wow Queenstown what a spectacular part of the world, another place for my bucket list. Oh and pork and fennel sausage rolls are my favorite flavoyr i love that you are getting to show us your hometown favorite spots. Great vlog guys x

[@ChasingaPlate]

Same Kellie! We are so happy to be able to take you guys on a little tiki tour around NZ! You must get to Queenstown one day- it truly is a spectacular place. Thanks for watching and commenting on this one mate. Cheers, Sheena

[@frederickwilliam7]

Hello Kellie, you have an amazing page. Do you mind connecting?

[@jenniferrodda6937]

We spent some time in Queenstown when we were working in NZ when our boys were babies (one’s a pie lover, the other is a sausage roll boy). We didn’t get to eat out much back then, but we loved the area, so, so beautiful. We even did a day trip to Arrowtown. Pies and sausage rolls hold the same place in an Aussie’s heart, as I’m sure you know. They are full of nostalgia and you really haven’t had the full AFL experience until you’ve bitten through the golden pastry and scolded your tastebuds with the searing hot interior. Great vid guys, as always.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Thanks so much for watching Jennifer! Hope this video brought back happy memories of your time in QTown! It is such a beautiful place- it honestly takes our breath away every time we visit- it never gets old!! Bet YOU make a bloody great pie and sausage roll!! 😄 thanks for watching and commenting 😘 Cheers, Sheena

[@gabbo164]

We so wanna go to that pub!!! Stuck in iso here in Sydney, we’re slowing going through all of your previous KZbin vids We’re loving NZ!!! So wanna go sometime Thanks for the epic vids guys 👍👍👍

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi guys, thanks for watching our older videos! Maybe a trans Tasman bubble will open up and mean we can explore in our own backyards a little more. We’d love to get down south again. The Cardrona pub is epic- bet you’d love it! Cheers, Sheena

[@TestAccount-uu9vp]

the food at that pub is awesome, really nice beer garden

[@jadecummings8093]

[@AndyL8]

My Top Ten....So much to eat..... 1. The Big Three..... Ferge Burger, Bakery and Ice Cream....burger is great and onion rings are awesome. Ferge Bakery Pies are fantastic.... Need to try Lamb Shank and Vension Mushroom. Pies were better several years ago, but still good. Boston bun (cream donut) Apple pie is fantastic, eclairs, brownies, cream buns, pastries.... the list goes on and on. You can eat there every day for a week and its winner after winner. Ferge Ice Cream would match some of the best ice cream in the world. Great quality dairy and amazing variety. 2. Fogo Brazilian BBQ Great way to taste New Zealand Meat.... seasoning is heavy, but food and drinks are great 3. The Grille Best Seafood Chowder in Queenstown at $27 is great value once you see the seafood. Mains are around $45-$55 which scares people off and is never too busy, but the food is great. Vension Tabbouleh, smoked sumac yoghurt is amazing. This place gets mixed reviews based on the pricing. But the chowder is a must. 4. Walters Peak by Steamboat Colonel's Homestead Restaurant.... Amazing location. Not a buffet fan but the pork belly is off the charts. 5. Ma Boulangerie is in the Remarkables shopping complex. French bakery and patisserie. 6. Rata. Expensive but Josh Emett is a world class chef. Worked for Gordon Ramsay and is talented. Haven't eaten at his Asian inspired restaurants in Queenstown.White man woking is not my thing. 7. Pedro's Lamb. Its all takeaway!! Buy some flat bread, garlic yogurt, salad from the supermarket and take it home. Winning. 8. The Sherwood New Zealand Produce at its best 9. Neat Meat butcher... Cook at home and buy some of New Zealand's best meat. Bourbon aged Scotch Fillet to Beef ribs. 10. Raewood Supermarket. Great meat, wont have the selection of Aged Meat in Neat Meat, but I would probably prefer to buy my meat here. Seafood is good too. This place has everything you want to cook the best home cooked meal. I've been to Botswana.... I thought it was a little overrated. The menu is huge and the execution of food is always going to be a challenge. Too much ego. For example..... Wild Boar dish has pork done in 3 ways. Belly, Rack and in shoulder was an over kill. All 3 were average, would have been better to do just one pork cut well. That said, there are so many places to eat, was a shame this video only did 1 place from Queenstown.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Thanks for watching Andrew and thanks for the comment. So much to eat in Queenstown isn't there. This video was some of our must eats for a visitor. We'd love to cover more of the restaurants when we have more time (and lets face it more money on our next visit). We just LOVE Queenstown so much. Re your list: 1 - yep don't the Ferge businesses just get it right - we love lots of their pies but it always had to be mince and cheese for us. It's the most classic Kiwi pie out there and one we always recommend visitors having. We don't like their other pies though. 2 - Never been - thanks for the tip. Sounds good for out of country visitors even if it's Brazilian style. 3 - Apart from Bluff oysters coming up the highway we've never had too much seafood in Queenstown. That sounds great though. We've not been to the restaurant but have had many great cocktails in the Eichardt's front bar. One of the most memorable drinks I've ever had was from there. A dark rum, orange and raisin drink while it was snowing outside. Perfect! 4 - Would love to go over there for the views. Have family that have done the boat trip and they loved it. 5 - Sounds great! 6 - Been lucky enough to eat at Rata 3 times on different visits. Love it. Such a brilliant menu and that forest backlit wall is something else to look at. 7 - Pedros is so good! We love their takeout style and the lamb is so good. It seems expensive on paper but isn't bad for a group once you see how much you get. A bottle of red to go with it and you're made. 8 - The Sherwood is well worth the small trip out of town isn't it. We ate there a week or two after they opened and sadly haven't made it back. I think we're well overdue for a visit. 9 -Sounds like a cool concept. Will have to do that next time. 10 - Sounds interesting. We've never done much cooking while in Queenstown so don't know it. Will have to check it out. One place I'd not be able to leave off your list is Amisfield. It's a little ways out of town but not far. Such an incredible menu. Thanks for watching and for the list. Cheers, Thomas 😀

[@tototalomo]

Wow! another amazing view. NCOV-19 quarantined,no worries. marathon watching for chasing a plate.

[@bandknight]

Oh yeah! I wish savory pies were more popular in the US. That pie looked great. That sausage roll though! I think my blood sugar spiked while you were eating that sticky bun too. 😄 Who doesn't love a good burger, and those burgers looked pretty spectacular. Great, yummy video.

[@ChasingaPlate]

So happy you enjoyed it bandknight 😄 oh my goodness all of those foods are must eats whenever we head to Queenstown. Those pies are next level. I remember being very confused when I ordered pie in the US for the first time- no savoury pies anywhere in sight 🤣 thanks for watching and commenting mate. Cheers, Sheena

I use Fennel in most of my dishes,and on pizzas,it's the one herb that makes meat sing like no other,i really miss the food back home,nothing like it,or compares.

[@ChasingaPlate]

It’s so good. Whereabouts do you live? It’s been awesome being back here for the past couple of months. Unexpected but not unwelcome. Can’t get enough of the food- our produce is just unreal. Hope you can get back here over Christmas mate. Thanks for watching and commenting on this video. Cheers, Sheena

The views in your country are breathtaking! You are both so fortunate to live in such a scenic area!

[@ChasingaPlate]

Aren't they amazing! Our home is in Auckland which is about a 1.5 hour flight from Queenstown. NZ being long and thin means you don't have to go far for a very dramatic landscape change. It's very special place and heading South is always very exciting. We love it down there in all season also which is neat (great skiing in winter). Cheers, Thomas 😀

[@edsmaronmusic]

Oh yeah! I went to almost every one of these places (skipped the fine dining). Half hour in queue at Fergburger is not that bad, actually. Cheers!

[@ChasingaPlate]

Good one! We really enjoy the fine dining in Queenstown but it sure is hard to go past a pie or burger on the beach. What burger did you get? Yeah 30 minutes wasn't bad at all. We love how speedy they are even though the lines are huge. Thanks for watching this one! Cheers, Thomas 😀

[@edsmaronmusic]

@@ChasingaPlate The Fergburger Deluxe! I figured I would try the classic. It's everything they say it is, and then some. I had a pie with pork belly and several flavors of gelato. Yes, I ate at other places too.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Good work with the deluxe! I was reading that on the menu when we were in line and drooling. I've never had that one there. Next time. That pie sounds amazing. Isn't their gelato great also! We had that a number of times while there 😂😋

[@tosht2515]

- Ketchup on meat pies; saw many people in Sydney do that so I followed their lead. Very nice indeed but I think I prefer naked. - I've never tried Speight's. My favorite NZ beer is an IPA from 8 Wired which is located very close to Omaha where you two collected clams. But back to Speight's. @12:30 may have been the tiniest sip of beer I have ever seen. 😂 - The lamb burger sounds so delicious. I've had plenty of lamb over the years but not minced/ground. *_Awesome day, guys._*

[@ChasingaPlate]

Defo is a great match on a meat pie. Sheena absolutely has to have t sauce on a pie. If it's a good pie I'm happy to go without though. If the option is there though I'll normally take it. I think I've had 8 Wired beer before. If so it was a very long time ago and I can't say my memory is clear enough thinking back (I might actually be thinking of something different because I thought what I had was from Wellington). Will have to track it down next time we're in NZ. I really enjoy a Speights. It's a very simple beer, a great drinker. It is what is says on the box and it's not trying to be anything more. I really appreciate that. haha re the sip. I was hoping no one would notice. Due to the health issues I've had of late and an operation I actually wasn't meant to be drinking. I can't go past a Speights at the pub so I did drink more than that but it wasn't the most convincing sip on camera 😂 It was my first bit of alcohol in about 7 months though so there was a bit of hesitation there! The lamb burger was absolutely fantastic. They really got the balance right between the mint and lamb. Sheena and I were fighting over it. Thanks for watching Tosh. Cheers, Thomas 😀

[@tosht2515]

Ah, my other favorite NZ beer is from the Wellington area, *_Panhead Custom Ales._* It's owned by Lion so has good distribution. Had it in Sydney as a bartender recommendation. How about that? 👍 Thanks for the explanation of the sip. I know you love a good beer so it was noticeable. Obviously hope you're on the road to full recovery.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Sounds familiar also. It's been too long since we lived in NZ to have good knowledge on the beer. Did Panhead start as an independent and then get purchased by Lion? Due to the above my beer knowledge in NZ didn't increase on this last visit sadly. Thanks for the kind words. Cheers.

[@tosht2515]

I'm quite sure your suspicions are correct. Panhead is most definitely a quality craft brewery. As you know, Sydney is huge into craft beer and all the bartenders at the beer pubs I visited loathed the fact that they had to carry a few of the national Aussie big beers to appease the cheap regulars. 😂 It was entertaining. I'd ask their opinion on VB, Coopers, Tooheys, etc. just to see them frown or roll their eyes. Doubt they would import a similar NZ beer.

[@ChasingaPlate]

I remember seeing VB on tap in Queenstown about 10 years ago.....it was very confusing 😂 I've never seen anything like that before or since in NZ. Australia sure does know how to do craft beer. We had some neat micro brewery's around where we used to live it Melbourne. Brilliant to visit after a weekend bike ride 😀

[@leawoodard-brock4341]

Another great video! The weather and scenery are breathtaking. The pie and the sausage roll looked AMAZING, yum!

[@FoodandFootprints]

Love the look of the Cardrona Hotel! Can see why it is so well-known. Lots of history! And the great outdoor seating area, too. Always have to get the local brew!

[@ChasingaPlate]

Isn't it brilliant. We can't visit that part of the world without calling in. In winter time they sell wee paper bags of marshmallows and sticks for you can sit about the outdoor fires having a beer and toasted marshmallows. Heaven after a day skiing! Local brew all the way. 😋

Mince and cheese pie had me drooling! Love the quirkiness of Bralandia at the end!

[@ChasingaPlate]

Isn’t it cool SuzyGrowsMyBiz? I really wanted to leave my bra there 😆 oh my goodness that pie is next level! Thanks for watching and commenting 😘 Cheers, Sheena

[@salanicus]

Great episode guys. I've not been that far south yet, but this lake area looks wonderful. Really far south. Must get chilly down there most of the year. Thanks for sharing :) Best wishes, James and Kim

[@robertwalker1333]

It is chilly over winter May to October the summer can be very hot depends on wether you want to ski or not

[@ChasingaPlate]

You’ll have to get down there on your next visit guys! It’s truly spectacular- takes our breath away every time we visit. It is cold in the winter but also super hot in the summer months- it’s a great place to visit anytime of the year really. Thanks for watching and commenting on this one 😄😄😄 Cheers, Sheena

[@PradeepRaajkumar1981]

WOW yum wooow PIE TOMATO sauce.. i love it.. BBQ and TOMATO Sauce.. WOW nice Siegal SOUND in the back nice.... Downunder feel...

[@ChasingaPlate]

Such great eats!!! Thanks for watching and commenting Pradeep- this was a super fun one to film! Cheers, Sheena

[@elainecarey6863]

Hi Thomas and Sheena another fantastic video. Oh God that pie shop was unreal. I was literally eating the mince pie and sausage roll with u both. How do u both stay so trim. The burgers looked incredible. There really is no substitute for simple food done well. Finally Sheena Im so envious of you eating burgers and pies and your lippy never moves and is on point always lol.

[@ChasingaPlate]

🤣 it’s a pretty good lippy I must say! Will have to stock up when we’re next in Korea 😆 so happy you enjoyed this video mate, omg I have to say that the pie and sausage roll were really next level. You’re so right simple things done well! We need to start pounding the streets to work off all that pastry 😆 Hope you are enjoying the series mate! Cheers, Sheena

[@prazuzu]

Oooooo savory pie~~~😍 too bad we don't really have it here, but tomorrow I'm making one for lunch!! This is one of the reasons why I've been wanting so much to go to New Zealand especially Auckland, renting a bike and really just enjoying the nature and the comfort food..I envy you guys😗

[@ChasingaPlate]

Do it prazuzu! I love making pies too- they can be hard work but totally worth the effort I reckon! Hope you can get to NZ one day soon- it really is a spectacular place if you enjoy the outdoors! Thanks for watching and commenting mate, hope you enjoy the rest of the series! Cheers, Sheena

[@89ekaj]

What time do you guys recommend visiting Fergburger to avoid long lines during summer?

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi 89ekaj, thanks for watching and commenting! Avoid the main meal times and you should be fine 😄 there’s never a queue in the morning and they’re open until super late so just steer clear of trad lunch and dinner hours! Enjoy! Cheers, Sheena

[@89ekaj]

@@ChasingaPlate Thank you replying. Really appreciate it. We will be there next year February and Fergburger will be one of our stops.

[@ChasingaPlate]

🙌🙌🙌🙌 have a wonderful time! And definitely grab a mince and cheese pie from Fergbaker next door as well- they’re top notch 🤤

[@liengthi]

Queenstown is one of my favourite destinations! Food looks good and hearty. ♥️

[@ChasingaPlate]

It's an awesome part of the world isn't it Lieng Son? We never get tired of visiting! Thanks for watching and commenting- hope you enjoyed this video mate. Cheers, Sheena

[@FoodandFootprints]

Oh yeah love fennel in sausage - such a nice flavor!

[@ChasingaPlate]

Great combo isn't it. Match made in heaven 😋

[@Eowynna]

Hello, Thank you for this great video. Tout y est appétissant 👌🏻 Et quels beaux paysages 😊

[@ChasingaPlate]

Merci beaucoup d'avoir regardé Eowynna! C'est une si belle partie du monde et cela nous coupe le souffle. Nous sommes si heureux que vous ayez apprécié la vidéo, merci d'avoir pris le temps de commenter! A bientôt, Sheena 😍

[@FoodandFootprints]

That line at Ferg’s looked like no joke, but 30 minutes isn’t bad at all. And you get to eat them with that view!

[@ChasingaPlate]

The line is always crazy. I've never seen it without some sort of large line. But yes they really know how to keep it moving. It's a great experience and sure is worth walking down to the beach if you're eating them during the daylight hours. A must do whenever we're in Queenstown 😀 - Thomas

[@nightfox263]

Dat mince + cheese pie looks divine....missed u both a lot....so happy to have u back !!!!!

[@ChasingaPlate]

😄😄😄😄 we are so happy to be back Pradnesh Jadhav! Omg that pie really was next level. Thanks for watching and commenting and hope you enjoy the NZ series mate! Cheers, Sheena

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi Mohd Fairus, thanks for watching this one mate! Queenstown is so beautiful- it takes our breath away every time we go there! Hope you enjoyed the video mate. Cheers, Sheena

[@MichaelLatham]

So as you know I have been begging you guys to do the NZ videos. I'm way over the moon at how good they are coming out. NZ is a hard sell to Americans because of travel time and they all think they want to go to Australia instead. I'm working changing that one person at a time, so this content is perfect for that. NZ always tries to kill me, but I always leave it better (long story on that one). I'm so happy to have you two back at it. You were missed.

[@ChasingaPlate]

You’re a great ambassador for our little island Michael! So happy you are enjoying the series- it’s been a joy to share a small slice of NZ on here and we hope it inspires people to visit! Hope you like the rest of the series mate! Thanks so much for watching and commenting 😄 Cheers, Sheena

[@lhfon082]

Our best food memory was the smoke fish pies! It was heavenly!😋

[@ChasingaPlate]

YUM!!! Where was that from. We sure do love a smoke fish pie. It's something we made a few times while in NZ actually. So good. Thanks very much for watching this one and we hope you enjoyed it. Cheers, Thomas 😀

Awesome awesome quality. I'm christchurch based, love making vlogs. Your footage is just so crisp. What sort of camera gear are you using ? Just found your channel, love it

[@ChasingaPlate]

Thanks so much mate. It was so neat being able to make some content in NZ. You're so lucky to be from such a beautiful part of the country. We film everything with a Lumix GH5. Glad to hear it looks good! Thanks very much for watching. Cheers, Thomas 😀

Loved this video.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Thanks for watching! Queenstown is such a special place and we loved filming there. Great food and great views! Cheers, Thomas 😀

[@rahulmarskole6794]

@@ChasingaPlate Great work guys as Always. Love you both.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Thank you very much 😊

[@AO-iv6yr]

Mmm.. I don't usually see pies with such buttery and crumbly pastry.. reminds me of the crust of those pineapple buns or the pastry of particular type of chicken pie sold in Singapore. What a great find. It looks so good... I for one can't eat a pie with tomato sauce though cuz it would cover up the taste of the filling 😄

[@ChasingaPlate]

Such great pastry A O. Bit more moist than what you’d find with those dishes from Singapore. Sheena can’t go past the sauce when it comes to pies. I really like sauce with my pies but I can go without if need be. Sheena on the other hand just has to have it! 😀 that sure is a great pie! As always thanks so much for checking this one out. Cheers, Thomas 😀

[@angelmaxwell1393]

Oh Jezz. y’all. So beautiful thanx for quick reply to my comment/question. Lol. Oh the food sounds so delicious and if I’m ever in New Zealand I’m definitely trying these places hopefully they do have vegan menu items any hope y’all will do a vegan option at the places y’all go ? Thanx.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Thanks for watching this one! I don't think these places had a vegan option sadly. There would be lots of options in Queenstown though. We aim to always show the best local food so if it happens to be vegan then we'd definitely film it. India was a brilliant place for vegan (or at least vegetarian food). Hope that makes sense and thanks again for watching. Cheers, Thomas 😀

[@axd1922]

It reminded of when I was working in Queenstown :)

[@ChasingaPlate]

Awesome Rimuru Tempest! Oh my goodness if I worked in Queenstown I’d be eating pies and burgers nonstop 😆 Hope you enjoyed this video mate and thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers, Sheena

[@PepsisElectronicMusic]

Thought I was the only person that likes tomato sauce on a pie. Probably because I live in uk

[@ChasingaPlate]

I literally can’t eat a meat pie without it 😆 very much a kiwi thing sauce with a pie! Thanks for watching and commenting on this one mate, hope you enjoyed the video. Cheers, Sheena

[@PepsisElectronicMusic]

I have it with everything. Love these videos and you both seem like cool people that I would like to hang out with and eat some good food. Have you ever visited Manchester? They have got a good food scene. Don’t know how it compares to the city’s you’ve visited already. Plus Liverpool’s similar.

[@ChasingaPlate]

That’s such a kind thing to say 😄 so glad you’re enjoying our content Ben! Neither of us have been to Manchester- would love to see more of England when we’re able to travel again. It would be awesome to do a massive food tour around the country! Just need to save a few more pennies 😆

[@FoodandFootprints]

Hahahah that frisky ketchup

Totally out of control. Too excited for pies 😂😂 - Thomas 😀

Always get a kick out of the differences between pies for New Zealand and the US haha.

So different. Always confuses us when we're in the US because of minds think mince and cheese 😂 Cheers, Thomas 😀
