A Tasty Affair
Old Government House Museum sparkled in shades of blue for the launch of the BVI’s newest cookbook, Taste: Recipes from Acclaimed BVI Restaurants and Chefs. The evening featured hors d’oeuvre-sized versions of recipes from the cookbook prepared on-site by the chefs and served with wines paired and provided by Caribbean Cellars. Each guest received a copy of Taste along with other goodies in bags donated by WorldHouse Caribbean.
The cookbooks are available at the aLookingGlass office at Road Reef Plaza, at retailers and restaurants throughout the islands, or online at www.alookingglass.com.
