Cafe Jireh, BEST Custard Squares In Rarotonga with Paige Graham

Get ready for a ‘Family’ story, from Skyscraper's to a Volcanic Tropical Island!<br/><br/>Paige Graham, shares with us the story of the business her family own named Cafe Jireh.<br/><br/>I listened as Paige told me the story of her parents Deborah and Craig, who came here for their honeymoon almost 30 years ago. Since then Rarotonga has always been a SPECIAL place for them. Paige tells us the story of how her parents 7 years ago announced that they were leaving Auckland, New Zealand and moving to Rarotonga, purchasing the cafe business Cafe Jireh. And their idea to brand the slogan of their home made “Best Custard Squares In Raro”. <br/><br/>Both Paige and Ben (her partner) are trained and qualified as chefs. Paige chats about the vision to own her own cafe one day, and how her parents suggested that she came with Ben, and stay for 12 months to run Cafe Jireh as an experience.<br/><br/>Picture this: “City pace can be exhausting”, Paige says and together we dive into a conversation about training our youth here in Rarotonga. Showing them that there are so many opportunities, here in their/our own back yard. <br/><br/>“There is a FUTURE in Hospitality, with the right training and under the right people. Get immersed in the culture and let’s ALL help our island community”. <br/><br/>Kia Orana, May you live long<br/>Aere Ra, Farewell<br/>Kia Manuia, Good Luck and Good Health<br/><br/>Try Raro Pass FREE for 2 days:<br/>raropass.com<br/><br/>Find out where to shop, where to eat, what to do and more in Rarotonga at:<br/>raropass.com<br/><br/>The Kia Orana Podcast was created as a result of lock down Covid restrictions, in 2020.
