Take-away
bougna : If you’re a group or family (i.e. 4 – 8 people),
if your budget is limited and you’d like to taste the
Melanesian festive meal, the bougna, you can have one of
the island women prepare it for you. Order at least a day or
two before (it’s a lot of work), collect it at mid-day and
relish eating it with your fingers in the shade along the
beach or other picnic spot. For more details contact Point
I, Note: Cruise ship visitors are offered a taste of bougna, free, along Kuto Bay from about 10.30 am.
