Local Food Preparation Promoted at Ginger Beach

BY JAYJAY MESAAC

GINGER Beach Resort continues to promote traditional ways of food preparation for tours and visitors who are accommodated at the resort and enjoy the sensation of food prepared locally and with local ingredients.

“Our traditional ways of preparing food adds value to the meals and has its own supplements which make up a deliciously healthy diet which nourishes the body and at the same time the financial expenses,” said Pricilla Eva, the person in charge of food preparation at GBR.

During an interview with Tourism media, Ms. Eva said local food preparation not only satisfies the guests but also her team who learn to reconnect with their traditional practices. She said local food preparation is also cheap and does not incur much expense since it is simple and tasty.

“Our traditional food preparation which regulars call “local Kaikai” has usually attracted a lot of visitors to spend more time at GBR, so this has encouraged us to maintain our style and continue to make it better into the future,” said Eva.

“Since entering the modern age modern forms of food preparation and local food selection have already taken over and in most eateries, in town, you will hardly find “local Kaikai”. Our local food is only occasionally served at our homes and hardly in public restaurants or hotels as a result of new invention modern cooking materials are available.”

“Reviving our traditional forms of food preparation with the use of local ingredients is no longer an indulging practice but a necessity in which we are obliged to uphold. I have a strong belief that our local methods and food choice are healthier and cheaper than what we choose nowadays and even though it is a lifestyle choice, the advantages truly outweigh the sensation,” said Eva.

“It is evident at our establishment that our visitors are more interested in traditionally prepared food, as it is both tasty and carries a nutritious value which has a huge influence in their choice of meals,” said Eva.
