Tongan Language Week: foods

This is our acitivity for the Tongan Language Week. Micki and I decided to work together and focus on the dishes of Tongan, we created a slideshow on the different dishes. One intersting thing was that Tongans use the umu to cook most of their foods, and the main ingredients were fish, lots and lots of fish.
Our favourite dish is the Faikakai Topai. What is your favourite dish?
