The Executive Chefs at Delmanor Wynford prepared a wonderful Caribbean themed BBQ lunch that was enjoyed in the Donalda Dining Room due to the inclement weather. That didn't stop everyone from celebrating and enjoying the jerk chicken, jerk hamburgers with plantain chips, mango salad and mango ice cream with fruit skewers.

Following lunch, residents were treated to the sounds of the islands with Triple Play Pan Trio that consisted of steel pan, soca and reggae music. Residents and staff were dancing to the island music and having a wonderful time.

Everyone who attended the Caribana festival at Delmanor Wynford had a wonderful time. The island flavours and sounds combined with the magnificent costumes were more than enough to forget the rainy weather outside and instead be transported to the sunny Caribbean.
