Some of the Results from Culinary Arts

During the 2014 Roberts NIFCA Culinary Arts Arena & Expo in association with Caribbean Cuizine and Massy Stores patrons were asked to cast their votes for the Best Booth display and presentation in the Expo.  All top booth awardees took home a gift basket filled with products compliments Wibisco and two tickets to the NIFCA Gala, while the first place winner walked away with an additional prize of a lunch for two at the new Divi Southwinds Pure Ocean Restaurant.

Patrons attending the Arena & Expo also had their say on what they considered to be the Best NIFCA Culinary Entry and that winning entry voted by the people earned the exhibiting participant a ticket to any LIAT Destination.
