A 25-year-old realized his childhood dream after opening his own restaurant at the Superfresh complex in Tamavua today.

‘The Hideout Restaurant & Bar’ owner Prashneel Kumar who previously worked at various restaurants always aspired to start his own business.

Kumar says his passion for cooking motivates him to open his own restaurant, creating employment for four individuals.

“For a while, I used to work for various restaurants and various hotels in Suva where I gained knowledge and built confidence to plate the food, and menu creating, it was all part of the planning.”
