Thanks for checking out our Peek of the Week!
Hi, I'm Carrie! I'm the CEO of Best of Cayman.
The Peek of the Week is our opportunity to highlight outstanding businesses
and activies throughout the local community. Every week, our Best
of Cayman team and I will select a new local business to visit, experience
it first-hand and feature them on BestofCayman.com.
This is huge exposure because our website visitors come from all walks
of life with all sorts of interests, and most
of them are right here in Cayman.
Being chosen as the Peek of the Week feature doesn’t cost anything
and is a fun and exciting way to gain new customers.
If you would like to make a suggestion for the Peek of the Week or
to have your business considered, please contact
us. The only qualification is that you're in the Cayman Islands.
I look forward to visiting!
Here's a short list of our past PEEKS:

2008 Taste of Cayman
The 21st Taste of Cayman, Food & Wine Festival at Camana Bay will showcase sampling of local and international cuisines from over 30 restaurants amongst many other activities. The fun begins on Saturday, November 1st at 5pm with Cayman's finest restaurants parading their best dishes from mouth watering Ginger glazed pork ribs, Jamaican curry chicken and pork, fish tacos, chicken & beef fajita's to rum cakes, conch chowder and homemade desserts. The exquisite food is complimented with drinks from the fully stocked wine and cash bar featuring local Caymanian beers.
The evening will be filled with local entertainment, a Cayman cook-off, Butterfield Kid's Corner activities and amazing food from a variety of restaurants. The adults will unwind in the Luna Del Mar Lounge presented by Kaibo and Cayman Distributer's/Blackbeard's. Your 'Taste' ticket not only admits you to the event but it also allows you the opportunity to win grand prizes, including TWO VW Convertibles from Arch Automotive and vacation packages including flights from Cayman Airways to their gateway cities! The 'Taste', as it's affectionately referred to, caters to young and old alike. The Taste has become the highlight of Cayman Islands Tourism Association (CITA) annual calendar with each year drawing a greater crowd, and this year evolving into the Food & Wine Festival at Camana Bay!
The proceeds from the weekend's events will benefit the Lighthouse School, the Pines Retirement Home, and other local CITA charities. In addition, the event raises money for the Cayman Islands Tourism Association Scholarship Fund, which assists Caymanians to pursue a career in the tourism industry.

It's Pirate's Week! Nov 6th - 16th
First it's fireworks, followed by a local song contest and then, almost every day for 11 days, Caribbean rhythms pulsate in open-air street dances until the wee hours of the morning. An authentic slice of the native Caribbean! A mock "pirate invasion" from the sea! Old-time sailing vessels, loaded with "pirates" make a Saturday surprise landing at the bowl-shaped George Town harbour, as thousands line the streets to take part in the spectacle or just watch. It's good-natured fun, there's a new twist every year, and families just love it. It's the only event of its kind in the Caribbean region.

As the Cayman Islands prepares for the action-packed Cayman jazz fest, BET J is getting visitors excited for this fifth anniversary of the festival sounding out in the idyllic Caribbean location from December 4 to 6, 2008.
"We are expecting another stellar production in paradise and encouraging our audiences to visit Grand Cayman for an exciting line-up of first class musical entertainment," said Cybelle Brown, Vice President of Sales and Business Development with BET Digital Networks, which along with BET Event Productions and the Cayman Islands Department of Tourism is producing the festival.
Grammy Award-winning artist Angie Stone
"Grammy Award-winning artistes Michael Bolton, Anita Baker, Angie Stone, Cassandra Wilson, Norman Brown and Robin Thicke are set to woo audiences with their many and varied musical stylings," said Brown, who added that Gerald Albright, Terrence Howard, Esperanza Spalding and Algebra complete the classy line-up of international artistes that will harmoniously complement the local Caymanian talent on show.
The 2008 Preview Show airing coincided with BET J's fresh new look for the "Island Lime" Saturday programming line up.
American film and television actress Wendy Raquel Robinson, widely known for her role in the sitcom The Steve Harvey Show as "Principal Regina," and currently starring as The Game's Tasha Mack on the CW Network, teamed up with local business executive Alee Fa'amoe to host the compelling preview show.
