From 11 November, luxury Antigua retreat Nonsuch Bay Resort will be hosting its food and wine festival celebrating the best of local cuisine. Featuring Champagne and rum tasting, along with cookery demonstration, this is a fantastic introduction to Antigua's gastronomy as the festival opens the door to Antigua and Barbuda's tantalising cuisine where food-lovers can experience authentic island dishes, bursting with an array of delicious flavours and textures.

For an insight into the culture, the speciality on the island is fungi, a smooth cornmeal pudding and pepperpot stew, a mix of salted beef and pork with okras, aubergines, spinach, pumpkin and squash. Being an island, the array of fresh seafood available to sample will be second to none! Follow in the footsteps of the islanders by finishing your meal with Antigua's beer Wadadli or the English Harbour 5 year old rum to make this a gourmet trip to remember. Guests staying at Nonsuch Bay Resort during the duration of the festival can enjoy free Weekly wine tastings with Caribbean Street Food Canapés and the assistance of Liam Steevenson, Master of Wine who will be on hand to speak to with guests about wine and their wine choice during selected lunches and dinners.
