The days of local restaurants applying for work permits to source executive chefs from overseas for their establishments may well be a thing of the past.

Chairman of the Barbados Tourism Marketing Inc. and the Barbados Tourism Product Authority, Sunil Chatrani made the point at the culmination of the Food And Rum Festival 2018 on Sunday.

Speaking to the media at Taste The Spirits Of Polo at Holder’s Hill, St James, he said an event like Food And Rum, particularly this year with the introduction of the Gourmet Safari Series, was a catalyst to advance Barbados’ brand in food tourism.

More importantly, it was an incredible platform to showcase the skill set of Barbadian chefs. (SDB Media)
