My Interests • I think that Fijian food looks so amazing. It looks so fresh and the people in Fiji adore the food. The fish and chickens are locally caught, the greens and fruit are all grown, and it’s all good quality food. The food is so unique, and the Fijians spice it up with many different spices, sauces and even fruit juice!
