“Cooking is an art; an expression. Cooking is my passion.

I grew up in Papua New Guinea, where food is always fresh, organic and available. It is an important part of my culture; something that brings everyone together.

I started cooking at an early age, cooking for my family and catering for events at church. It really clicked when I started learning how to cook different traditional dishes - including my signature Cassava Cake, which I’ll be baking for my Two Good Tuesday menu.

I hope to bring the taste of Papua New Guinea to the table, as well as an experience that is special and memorable.

I’ll be serving a traditional menu celebrating coconut, a main ingredient in our traditional cooking, with its earthy, creamy flavours adding a grounded touch to each dish:

Mumu, a way of preparing root vegetables like sweet potatoes, taro and plantain, with chicken and leafy greens, covered in banana leaves baked in the oven (traditionally cooked in an earth oven) (GF, Dairy Free, Vegan Option)
Bariva, a traditional dish cooked for special occasions, made up of steamed or boiled sago and ripe banana, topped with coconut cream (GF, Dairy Free, Vegan)
Cassava Cake, with baked Cassava and coconut (GF, Dairy Free, Vegan)

I hope to see you around our lunch table.”

Join us at The Landing for another Two Good Tuesday - our monthly lunch series that celebrates the family meals and generational flavours behind our beloved Two Good team, around a shared table that brings people together over heartfelt food and meaningful connections.

September’s edition celebrates Matalau, The Fold’s Barista All-Rounder and Work Work program Alumni, with a menu inspired by her roots in Papua New Guinea, where she first fell in love with cooking for family and community.

The best part? Every ticket directly funds Two Good Co’s work empowering and employing women who have experienced homelessness, domestic violence or complex trauma, helping create pathways through employment, training and community.

Shared tables.
Generational recipes.
Stories carried through ingredients.

Hope we see you there.
