New Zealanders have always loved eating meat, although we now eat less of it than in the past. Sharing a drink - tea or coffee, a beer or wine over a meal - has been an important ritual. Cakes, biscuits and home-made preserves filled the cupboards of New Zealand households for many years. And in the last 30 years, fast food and dining out have featured more prominently in New Zealand&#39;s culinary scene. </p> dining drink food Food in the 20th century hangi maori food Thu, 01 Jan 1970 12:00:00 +1200 700 at http://www.nzhistory.net.nz /culture/the-daily-grind/overview-1920-1950 <p> Wellington city centre is today renowned for its flourishing caf&#233; scene and the culture surrounding it. But that hasn't always been the case. Prior to the 1950s there was little sign of the sparkling capital that exists today. The caf&#233; culture that emerged that decade declined in the 1960s and 70s, before rallying strongly in the 1980s and 90s. </p> cafes drink food greeks leisure wellington Wellington cafe culture Thu, 01 Jan 1970 12:00:00 +1200 1000 at http://www.nzhistory.net.nz /culture/no-pavlova-please/dining-out <h2>Eat, drink and be merry: dining out in 20th Century New Zealand</h2> <div class="mini-pic-right"> <p><a href="/?q=node/1634"></a></p> <p class="caption"><a href="/?q=node/1634">Post-war sophistication</a></p> </div> <p>Before the 1960s, New Zealanders had a limited choice both of venue and of food if they wanted to dine out.
