The official launch of the Jamaica Food and Drink Festival at The Jamaica Pegasus Hotel last Friday was a feast of gastronomy, inspired cocktails, and sparkling bubbly. With its 11th staging set for November 13 to 16, guests got a taste of what the festival has in store, and the bar has already been raised to decadent heights. As attendees raised their glasses to kick off the weekend and the upcoming foodie fest, Something Extra was on location to capture the social highlights.
