Bon Appetit: The Caribbean Goes Organic


My January Bon Appetit was waiting in my mailbox today and I did a little dance when I read on the cover that they were featuring the Caribbean's expanding organic food scene. The article is excellent and really details the surprising challenges facing the organic food market in the Caribbean the astronomical cost of imported food to the region. But the best part of the article has to be the feature on Jakes in Treasure Beach Jamaica. The off-the-beaten-path gem of a beach hotel is such a special place so throwing in home grown local ingredients and a health minded chef and I've almost reached nirvana. You can read the article here, but take my advice and buy the magazine so you can droll over all the photos. 

Enjoy,
