Dining in style

There is a big difference between dining and just eating. Fine dining is a journey to be enjoyed by the taste buds in the company of persons similar minds. Those who can appreciate that, especially when food is paired with the right wine, turned up for a gourmet seven- course meal at The Jamaica Pegasus' food festival on Friday, November 6.

Visiting chef Bruce Riezenman and wine expert, Pascale Bres, took guests through the journey as they savoured the taste of each specific course with wine from France to Argentina.
