This year Taste of St. Croix is celebrating its 25th anniversary! This even has been one of the Caribbean’s signature culinary events featuring superb food and drinks presented by the region’s favorite eateries.
The event took place this year on April 8th at the Divi Carina Bay Resort and Casino. Taste of St Croix was once again a sold out event and hundreds of foodies delighted in sampling a variety of appetizers, entrees, desserts and vegetarian dishes served up by the island’s top eateries.
