There is no better way to bring families together than over a meal. National Commercial Bank Jamaica Limited pulled out all the stops to celebrate dads, on Sunday at the Chinese Gardens, Hope Gardens, in association with Caribbean Producers of Jamaica, Copperwood Pork, and Production Resource System.

Guests were spoilt for choices with several well-appointed food stations including Jacqui Tyson’s From Yard Style to Gourmet, Sheriff Gourmet BBQ, Truly Marvalicious sweet treats, and drinks courtesy of CPJ. But the highlight was, doubtless, the Food Network’s Chef Dylan Benoit’s live demonstration, as he showcased the art of preparing succulent BBQ Pork Belly Burnt Ends.

Amidst the culinary experience fathers took the opportunity to kick back, enjoy good company, and create lasting memories with their loved ones.
