Island Mas Breakfast Party 2013 |
*******
This was the 6th edition of Island Mas' Breakfast Party, which started
back in 2008. a truly unique fusion of trini-bajan culture.
The event started at 7:30 am and was carded to go til 2:30 pm, however, my friends and I arrived at about 11 am... typical trini thing.
By the time we got there the sun was out in full force and the event
well underway. Received complimentary drinks on entry which we wasted
no time in putting away before heading to one on the 4 bars on site.
The wait for drinks wasn't long and the stock was premium. Shout out to
Kevin Clarke.
The Venue of it self was nice, the set up effective, easy access to
bars, space to "roll that batty" and safe even for wedges :). My only
issues with the venue were the heat and limited bathrooms. At one
point I actually thought the event had relocated to the surface of the
sun. Thank heavens for the huge cool air fan thingie, the water hose and
the strips running across the tent frame.
Missed the first few Djs, (sorry about that Penthouse). Shurwayne's
performance was up to standard as usual, and enjoyable. The real thing
from Tobago. Me being a big Edwin Yearwood fan I enjoyed his
performance immensely and Jus Jase definitely represented well for the
trinis.
The food... can I just say... damn. Waterside
Restaurant provided lunch and it was great!Garlic potatoes, fish,
chicken, pasta, mac pie, fish cakes (accra) salads. The options were
wide and tasted lovely.
Trini Doubles were also on hand and you never go wrong with doubles in a fete.
Overall vibe was great 9/10 and will be back next year with more friends. Really good job Island Mas.
