First ever Pepperpot festival slated for November

Andrea Bryan-Garner

A new event hits the social calendars this year: the Pepperpot Festival, slated to be held in the month of November, will usher-in the Christmas season.

The festival was derived from a random dream by Andrea Bryan-Garner, a Guyanese food enthusiast with a passion for her culture and cuisine, and it is expected to see participants from all the regions across Guyana in a competition to decide the winner of ‘the best pepperpot in Guyana’, title.

Andrea told The Scene that this will be a first time opportunity to celebrate one of the country’s national dishes.
