Hard to say. NZ cuisine is like British cuisine, but it got stuck in the 80s.
The Flat White. But that’s not strictly food.
Or maybe a potato top pie.

From Arizona / Mexico:
Birria, especially Birria Ramen. It's slow cooked meat in a broth of spices and a bit of onion and Chiles. It's fall apart tender, and usually served with melted cheese (Queso Birria). But my favorite version is served on top of Tapatio Ramen. So it's fork tender beef with spicy noodles.
Really great on a cold day.
Funny thing is, I'm from the East Coast of the US, so actually have a bunch of favorites from there that are really worth giving a try too.
Especially a REAL Cheesesteak.
Shaved Ribeye cut thin and grilled on a hot surface for a char. Grilled and charred onions and green peppers. Add it to an Italian soft roll that's warmed, NOT toasted. Melt on top of it either Cheez Wiz (an Aerosolized Cheese snack that's awful by itself) or American cheese. Mix it all together on the bun along with a few slices of Italian peperonchinis and a couple dashes of celery salt.
Incredibly unhealthy, but quite an experience if you ever get to try one (or make one yourself! I'm literally eating one I made for dinner right now haha 😂)
Tex mex breakfast taco.
Egg, bacon, cheese, tomatillo salsa.
Good for any meal. Takes less than 15 minutes from start to clean. Delicious and filling.

jucy lucy. it's like a cheeseburger but the cheese is inside the patty
Vegemite and butter on bread.
Sourdough, toasted, then add some avocado smashed with a fork, maybe some cheese, fresh or sliced, alphalpha sprouts if you're feeling fancy and a dash of lime juice.
Zang, thats great with morning black coffee.
Boston baked beans. To my taste, good ones are cooked low and slow so that the beans almost start melting together, and they should be both sweet and tangy.
Pepperoni rolls (which Ive never had but it is a regional favorite)
Pawpaw bread
Home-fries with ramps
Strawberry rhubarb pie
Nanaimo bars! I love sweets. Unfortunately.
Minestrone. Not local to me, but a great dish nonetheless
Fish and chips
Used to be Käsespätzle, but i had too much in december and november that i have grown sick of it.
Now i guess it would be A potato soup & apple noodle (not a pasta. A yeast dough with apple cinamon sugar filling
