- The idea of “comfort food” for us in the islands takes on distinctly new meaning. It’s the connective tissue between families, villages and generations, of coming together and being safe. This week, we’ve seen how local volunteers are distributing hot meals to people in need in the wake of Super Typhoon Champi, and we’ve even shown you how World Central Kitchen brokers relationships with restaurants, caterers, cafeterias, food trucks, and other vendors to prepare that nutritional happiness.
So with food services being such a big local employer, how can those in our food industry be called upon to get cooking and provide quality sustenance and hope for those affected by nature’s wrath, so they can join World Central Kitchen’s mission – the next time?
This is also a big economic booster for the island’s culinary business, with Guam’s economy vitally dependent on hospitality, as most restaurants lose at least a week of reservations and diners...
