“Anguilla Culinary Experience (ACE) is being created for, and by, people who appreciate the artistry and view food and wine as a way to celebrate life, make connections and explore a country’s history and culture,” said ACE co-chair and Villa Alegria owner Wendy Freeman of Chicago, IL. ” With over 100 restaurants within 35 square miles and no commercial chains, plus Anguilla’s unique ability to deliver an upscale, luxe experience in an approachable and authentic manner, you can’t find a more perfect environment for an epicurean festival.” ACE will center around three signature events, including the opening night Ultimate Barefoot Luxury Party sponsored by Tradewind Aviation at Cap Juluca, an afternoon Rosé Soirée party at Malliouhana, and a Caribbean beach barbeque on Meads Bay where local grill-masters will offer up freshly-grilled seafood and ribs, while members of the island’s competitive culinary team battle in a mystery basket competition. On May 13th, local and guest chefs at Ember, Veya, Tasty’s, Celeste, Pimms, Salt, and Stone will also present inventive prix fixe menus with wine pairings as part of the festival’s Restaurant Night.
Festival guests choose either the ACE or VIP level ticket package. Both packages include entrance to all three signature events, as well as a full or partial credit towards the prix fixe meal at one of the participating restaurants on Restaurant Night. Packages are available for online purchase at www.anguillaculinaryexperience.com at an early bird rate of $425 USD for the ACE level and $1,150 USD for the VIP option. “We are justly renowned for our spectacular beaches and exceptional cuisine, but Anguilla offers so much more,” stated Stacey Liburd, Anguilla’s Director of Tourism. “Guests who come to ACE, which is a thrilling addition to our event calendar, will excite not only their palates but all their other senses, as well as they, discover our unique island attractions and experiences.

Anguilla:
Tucked away in the northern Caribbean, Anguilla is a shy beauty with a warm smile. A slender length of coral and limestone fringed with green, the island is ringed with 33 beaches, considered by savvy travelers and top travel magazines, to be the most beautiful in the world. A fantastic culinary scene, a wide variety of quality accommodations at varying price points, a host of attractions and an exciting calendar of festivals make Anguilla an alluring and entrancing destination. Anguilla lies just off the beaten path, so it has retained a charming character and appeal. Yet because it can be conveniently reached from three major gateways – Miami (MIA), Puerto Rico (SJU) and Sint Maarten (SXM), and by private air, it’s a hop and a skip away. Romance? Barefoot elegance? Unfussy chic? And untrammeled bliss? Anguilla is Beyond Extraordinary.
