Nothing But the best for Governor General

November 12, 2008 by sue 

It’s not every day that you get the honour of catering for a digitary as important as Australia’s Governer General, so it was with much excitement that NCS – PNGDF prepared for the BIG arrival of His Excellency, Major General Michael Jeffery, on his last state visit to PNG.

THe offical visit took place at Taurama Barracks, where the Governer General was stationed as a Major in the Australian Army, commmanding PNG Soldiers.

An event such as this takes considerable planning. The team worked like clockwork arranging menus, wine lists, seating plans, right down to the flowers that were on the tables.

With the menu set and agreed upon, the chefs, apprentices and kitchen hands all rolled up their sleeves to ensure that function was one the Vice Regal couple would always remember.

For NCS Apprentice Chef, Eliza Ani, it was an opportunity of a lifetime. Providing advice on the buffet menu, she said she was thrilled to be able to assist at such a special event.
