Dining
Port Moresby’s dining scene continues to evolve with exciting new players adding diversity and choice, including the city’s first dedicated Thai restaurant – Lucky Lucky – at Nambawan Super Plaza in McGregor St, a level down from the popular PORT restaurant with its stunning terrace view of Fairfax Harbour. On the waterfront, the Harbourside precinct remains a dining hub with Akura’s European and Vietnamese menu bringing

new flavours alongside family steakhouse Alibi Bar & Grill, Daikoku Japanese restaurant, and old favourites Asia Aromas and Tandoor on the Harbour. In Waigani Business District, choice in eateries also abounds, from the major hotels to shopping malls such as Rangeview Plaza where you’ll find the award-winning Numundo Steak Haus – home of PNG’s succulent Numundo beef from West New Britain. You can also try traditional pit cooking at the Hilton’s Mumu, Italian, Indian and Brazilian specialties at Lamana or yum-cha at Dynasty Chinese restaurant at Vision City Mega Mall. For pub-style or family fare, you can’t go past the social hives of the Royal Papua Yacht Club and Aviat Club. Menus are generally full of fresh local seafood, beef, chicken, fruit and vegetables, along with quality imported produce and fine wines. Café culture is also thriving, led by stalwart Duffy, which roasts its own coffee. Don’t forget to book first – nearly all of these restaurants are busy most of the week.
The major hotels are primarily where you’ll find Port Moresby’s fanciest restaurants, with a few notable exceptions. Bacchus Airways Hotel, 7 Mile PNG’s finest dining experience, this is old-world elegance at its plushest, with Fine Dining / Nouvelle Cuisine
