Default Food/dessert pairing with Stoneleigh Marlborough Riesling and Church Road Chardonnay

I'm curious as to what foods and desserts would be best suited to these
wines that we purchased in New Zealand some time back.

The Stoneleigh Marlborough Riesling (2004) has a fairly citrusy
character with a soft lime nose, and is slightly dry.
The Chardonnay from Hawke's Bay (2004) has a similarly citrus-based
character in the taste, but with a slight hint of melon as well. It's
also a little dry and fairly acidic.

What main courses and desserts would be best suited to these? I'm not
too much of a non-vegetarian (often eat chicken, but little else) - so
are there any specific vegetarian dishes and cheeses that should be
paired with these two wines (both for separate meals)?
