Culinary Competation 2007
Our culinary competition had some outstanding entries as usual this year. Judging for the event was done by Davide Pugliasi of Brandywine Bay, Michael Collins of Peter Island Resort and Jan Robinson of Ship to Shore Cookbooks fame. They managed to munch there way through all the entries, and it was hard to pick winners.

We have done up a separate page on our winners for appetizers, entree, and dessert along with a bit of background information on them! Congratulations to all the chefs. The dishes were beautiful, enjoy viewing our picture gallery below of all our dishes!
