Executive Vice President of the SLHTA Mr. Terence Gustave said the efforts of the eight –man team help to differentiate St Lucia as a tourism destination. The SLHTA official says the strong showing by the local chefs is proof of the island’s drive to enhance the visitor experience. “Within our tourism product you need a variety of offerings” Gustave said. “We know visitors from Europe in particular take great delight in sampling the local dishes different destinations have to offer. Our culinary expertise - using our local products – is something that we have to work on. We are doing just that with our team’s participation in these competitions.” Team Manager Chef Bobo Bergstrom says he is extremely proud of St. Lucia’s performance because over the years, the “Taste of the Caribbean Competition” has become very challenging.

Participating in the culinary competition is a very expensive undertaking. The winning team of chefs is pleased to be the recipients of support from the private sector. The team comprised Gilroy Samuel – pastry chef of the Windjammer hotel, Fabian Vigee of the Jalousie Plantation, Elton Ambrose of the Rendevous Hotel, Marvin Alcindor of the Windjammer Landing and Barkus Henry- of Sandals Grande. St. Martin emerged as the overall winner of the Taste Caribbean Culinary Competition 2005.

Newly opened restaurant by Bobo Bergstrom who used to run Dragonfly at Windjammer Landing. The Edge is a lovely restaurant by the waters edge at Rodney Bay. It is not cheap but you get what you pay for. Good innovative menu and wine list. Bobo is opening a Sushi Bar soon. Wonderful tuna and great starters.

What a wonderful, complete dining experience...perfect location, excellent service, exquisite food beautifully presented and professional, friendly staff.The selection of fresh fish, markedly the tuna and red snapper, were the best I have tasted, cooked to perfection with a delightful fusion of flavours.Bobo's visits to the diners tables added a personal touch and I wish the restaurant and staff every success and thank them all for a truly memorable experience. I cannot recommend The Edge highly enough.

CARILEC, St Lucia

I wish to thank you for the excellent execution and fine dinning afforded my Board of Directors on the evening of Thursday 16th February 2006. The overseas Directors were full of compliments and my local Director Louisy was very happy to share one of his favourite places with his guests.† You will certainly be seeing a lot more of the CARILEC team at “The Edge.”
