Juliet has been serving meals in the Area Cafeteria for years until COVID hit. Then she was out of a livelihood. She was back in the auxiliary building one day serving a few lunches again as patrons came back to the temple when it opened. The woman who makes the dinners started sending a few and Juliet used the Auxiliary building for the temple going patrons but the cafeteria for the Area workers is still not opened for general use, just personal use at the tables.
Some of the senior missionaries were exploring one day and found Juliet serving meals and wondered if they could get meals too. The woman who makes the meals made them some, but the missionaries said they were too spicy hot. Juliet told them she could make meals for them that were not spicy. Just like that new business opportunity for Juliet.
But...the only snag is that the US missionaries like the Jollof Rice and Cabbage Stew, but are not especially fond of groundnut stew or other Ghanaian dishes that she makes very well. Every once in awhile she will bring something for them to try. They like the fried plantains and a few other things - but not much.

Some of the missionaries enjoy the beans and salad. I can eat chili but I'm not a fan of too many bean dishes from anywhere. Black beans in a taco or burrito or nicely disguised in tortilla soup - yes.
