Daru Restaurants

The food selection was fairly simple in hotels like this. There were no really fancy dishes, but you could get the standard 'western' fare including bacon & egg breakfasts. The big verandah-like seating area had the standard bar, serving up ice-cold San Miguel or Pacific beers. Those always went down well after a day sweating away in the Power Station!

Note the buildings raised up on stilts. This was common practise in PNG to prevent them getting water-logged during the heavy rain season. Fencing placed around the stilts allowed this space to be used for livestock if necessary.
