Fijian Feasts
Fiji’s cuisine reflects its multicultural heritage. With influences from Polynesia, India and China, fragrant curries and sumptuous seafood are staples in the Fiji dining scene. Indulge in delicious Kokoda, a ‘must try’ ceviche-style dish made with fresh fish, coconut milk and lime juice. For those with a hearty appetite, be sure to attend a traditional LOVO feast, where meats and vegetables are barbequed underground.
And with all these delicious dishes made from locally sourced organic ingredients, you can enjoy Fiji’s mouth-watering goodness guilt free!
Get a True Taste of Fiji
Want to sample the tropical flavours of Fiji? Try the islands’ signature dish, Kokoda. Executive Chef Iain Todd of VOMO Island Resort, shares his recipe for this Fijian favourite…
“It’s light, fresh, clean, colourful and cold – exactly what you need here in Fiji! Because the dish is so simple and requires no cooking, it relies entirely on the high-quality and freshness of the ingredients. Coconut milk is the hero of the dish and here at our resort, we make this from homegrown coconuts!”
– Executive Chef Iain Todd, VOMO Island Resort

“The biggest surprise for me was the exceptional quality of food! The most popular dish in Fiji is called Kokoda, which is like a ceviche in coconut milk. I looked forward to every meal and what delicious dishes I would be served next.”
