Gourmet goodies on wheels
There’s nothing quite like a recce complete with good food, drinks and a great vibe. Last Friday was that kind of vibe and more as the team from Jamaica Food & Drink Festival, all set to roll out an even more fabulous second staging, afforded friends, family and sponsors gourmet goodies on wheels. That’s right! The trucks rolled out in the parking lot of The Worthington at the Spanish Court Hotel and feast we did on healthy bites from Veggie Meals on Wheels, comfort-laden sandwiches from House of Loaves, watermelon-flavoured popcorn and fried chicken from Corner Bistro, jumbo hot dogs from CB Foods Bad Dawg Sausages, and delightful pastries from Levy’s Goodies.
