The Anguilla Tourist Board in conjunction with its New York based Public
Relations Company; Portfolio Marketing Group Recently seized
the opportunity to keep the spotlight on Anguilla as a
holiday destination when it hosted the Food Network's
"Feasting on Waves" team to capture and savour some of the
island's more indigenous foods.
“We saw this as an opportune time to creatively promote
the island as a destination with diversity – one with more
than just beaches. Indigenous food is a part of a people’s
culture and by having the local foods highlighted on such a
program brings credence to the fact that the island’s
culinary delights are among the best in the region.”

Host Alton Brown of the top rated series "Good Eats",
"Feasting on Asphalt", "Iron Chef", among others. "Feasting
on Waves" will bring the spotlight on REAL LOCAL FOOD
(ingredients, methods and what makes it uniquely Anguillian)
while highlighting and bringing to life the local
Anguillians passion behind the unique taste; "THIS WE
BELIEVE LENDS ITSELF TO TRULY PRESENTING YET ANOTHER ASPECT
OF THE ANGUILLA EXPERIENCE."
