Yeah, but probably some of the gnarlier things

And some of the killer whales that are coming out of nowhere and just some of the crazy stuff that we get to see here in New Zealand underwater.

Oh, yeah, 100%, 100%.

And, yeah, I think you're right.

I don't think there's been any documented attacks in the wild, but, yeah, obviously when you lock someone up that's that big and that clever, yeah, they go a bit loopy and they've knocked a few of their trainers on the head, I think.

Yeah, he's going to have to, I think –

expect to probably put some things in his mouth that he wouldn't normally put in his mouth some of the dishes that we got served up last year were exactly that pretty wild and pretty out the gate but that's why we're lucky to do what we do and that's what I love about the challenge as well it encourages restaurants to cook dishes with wild ingredients and make something that people wouldn't normally necessarily try

So it's a wicked opportunity, not only for us.

Of course, every dish is paired with a beautiful Montese beer, which makes the job just a little bit tougher.

But it's great that the New Zealand public get to have the opportunity to try something that's just a little bit different and a little bit out there.

I'm all for it, mate.

I'm all for it.

You lead the charge.

I'll just sit back and eat the food and drink the beer and follow your lead.

That sounds good to me, actually.

Yeah, mate.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's all yours.

Okay, great.

Yeah, mate, no, can't wait.
