I don't believe she was. She said she didn't like them because she
didn't like refried beans, tortillas, burritos or very cheap food. I
was just providing an example of a restaurant that didn't appear to have
refried beans or burritos, and definitely wasn't cheap. The tortillas
are house made, which might be a surprise for her if she could ever find
them, plus there are a ton of items that don't use tortillas, and for
the ones that have them on the side, you don't have to eat them.

I know that there are wonderful foods in New Zealand that you either
can't get here, or maybe aren't good.
