“The local food and the way they prepare it is the main reason why a lot of people are going to them,” Avere said. “The food is so good that I ordered from them during a meeting we had.
“The senior management really enjoyed the PNG-style food. I have even seen employees from the NCDC City Hall come all the way down here just for the food.”
