I know there are cookbooks galore out there, and yes, I am biased, but we should be proud of seeing our food in publications that are going global. Robert Oliver's latest publication is not just any cookbook—it's a vibrant celebration of our Pacific cuisine overflowing with colour, diversity, and health.

Food, especially pork, serves as a unifying force, connecting diverse cultures and fostering a sense of community. Through Kwaita’s passion and dedication, the Pacific witnesses not just a feast but the preservation of tradition, a celebration of unity, and a reminder of the strength found in togetherness.
