MG Team Waikato thoroughly enjoyed the lovely lunch your cafe put on for us on Saturday. 
They all commented on how fresh all of the food was.  They also enjoyed the friendliness of your staff.
Thank you so much,

“ I had breakfast in the café…and chatted briefly with the chef in his immaculate white, starched and creased uniform. All food is made on the premises.”

– In a letter to the Magazine of the NZ Ex-Vietnam Services Association

“…Lunch, which had been provided by Ronald Cherian and the team at Rations Café at the NZ Army Museum…. was especially yummy, and showed that Waiouru is no longer just a stop for petrol and “greasy spoons”. This and other meals proved the Rations Café slogan “Home of food less ordinary” are not just empty words…”
