Simply Tasty (with a side of rain)
The eagerly anticipated wine and food festival, Simply Red, was hosted on the lawns of Jamaica House to much fanfare last Friday. Notwithstanding the sudden, steady drizzle that became unrelenting rains all weekend long, the annual festival, mounted as a fund-raiser by the Heart Foundation of Jamaica, showcased a tantalising range of food purveyors offering fare from gourmet and Jamaican to Asian and Indian. Yogurts, sauces, ice cream, and of course, wines in pleasant varietals were also available. The fund-raising event is but one of the initiatives aimed at raising $10 million for the Foundation’s establishment of a cardiac rehabliltation centre.
