“I want visitors of St. Croix to experience the heart and soul of our island – the food – and fall in love with this slice of paradise I’ve been blessed to call home!” -Anquanette Gaspard

Anquanette is a Crucian-born entrepreneur, content writer & foodie whose European adventures led her back to her island roots. Her passion & love for food was a direct result of her upbringing in St. Croix: Freshly caught fish in the morning was afternoon lunch, trips to the rainforest were a tropical fruit fest & a hot coal pot enhanced food flavors. She launched Virgin Islands Food Tours to share St. Croix’s food, history & culture with each visitor. Now, they can experience authentic Crucian cuisine in an afternoon from those whose life’s goal has been preparing & sharing these culinary delights with anyone wanting a taste of St. Croix.
