BVI Culinary Teams Takes Bronze


The national BVI Culinary Team competed this past weekend in San Juan, Puerto Rico at the regional "Taste of the Caribbean" competition, and brought home the Bronze Medals in both the team competition and the bartending competition. The 2009 BVI Culinary Team Members came from Treasure Island Hotel, Charlie's, Spaghetti Junction, The Boathouse, Peter Island Resort and Spa, and Road Town Bakery. Thirteen Caribbean countries competed throughout the weekend, with each country represented by 3 chefs, one pastry chef and one bartender. The 13 national teams hailed from Anguilla, Antigua, Barbados, BVI, Curacao, Grenada, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, St. Lucia, St. Maarten/St. Martin, Suriname, Trinidad & Tobago, and the USVI. Anguilla's national team took home the top prize in the team competition and the St. Martin bartender took home Bartender of the Year honors.
