Toronto Mas

So with the launch of Kara's new blogg (see right hand side of page) and my attendance at the band launch I am getting excited about playing mas again :) For anyone coming to Toronto for our Carnival I just wanted to post the ads for 2 of what I feel are the hottest parties every Carabana.



Fire Fete's have always been personal favourites of mine. Any Fire Fete I go to I successfully lick my head and get on bad like I really in Trini lol. The only thing I can't stand is how hot it gets up in the place which brings me too why I enjoy the next party as well...




This is the closest we getting to a Savannah over here :)

"I can't wait, I can't wait, I can't wait till August!!!"

YUM!!!

The third Taste T&T will feature 12 chefs from Trinidad and Tobago’s leading fine dining restaurants and the best of local cuisine - making it an event not to be missed.

The Demonstration Kitchen headed by consultant chef Debra Sardinha -Metivier, a popular stop at last year’s festival, will form a major part of Taste T&T. Featuring live cooking demonstrations by participating chefs, seating capacity at the Demonstration Kitchen has increased to accommodate patrons interested in learning the chefs’ sumptuous secrets.


The Caribbean Village will feature 12 booths serving the best of local cuisine – from spicy shark and bake to generous servings of roti (curried meat and vegetables wrapped in roasted flat bread). It will also present many opportunities for sampling and giveaways.


For à la carte dining, there is the Gourmet area manned by Trinidad and Tobago’s top international chefs. Gourmet tickets cost $200 TT per day and entitle the holder to free entry and a selection of mouth-watering dishes from four chefs.

Tickets for Taste T&T are available at the TDC’s head office Level 1, Maritime Centre, Barataria, and IF House, 105 Tragarete Road, Port of Spain. General admission is free to children under the age of 12 and adults before 8 pm. After 8 pm, adult admission is $25 TT.

Things I Want to Do While In TnT This Time Around

So now that I know I reaching I have been searching the net for any events that will be taking place while I am there. I have yet to find much but I will keep looking. If anyone has any input on an event I post let me know or if ou hear of anything - I will be there from the 18th - 27 :)


Cultural Festivals

Feel the energy of Central Trinidad as the Sugar and Energy festival takes centre stage at Gilbert Park, Couva, from Friday 25 to Sunday 27. Starting with a fun-filled children’s day, the festival ends with the traditional Cart Parade – a procession of bull carts traditionally used to transport agricultural produce and sugarcane.

Hungry for Adventure?
Taste T&T, the most delicious weekend of the year, is back to delight both local and visiting palates on the 26 and 27, at the Jean Pierre Complex, Port of Spain, from 6 pm to 11 pm. Hosted by the Tourism Development Company Limited (TDC), Taste T&T highlights the culinary traditions of Trinidad and Tobago’s multi-ethnic heritage and the gourmet finesse of its chefs and cooks.

In St James, the city that never sleeps, the We Beat Festival of cultural shows and performances – including calypso, steelpan and dance – kicks off with a massive street party on May 25.

So I thinking of the Taste TnT - of course LOL and the Street Party in St. James
