Chilean Gastronomy Festival in June

From 2-12 June, the Sol y Sombra Restaurant at the Santo Domingo Hilton Hotel will be celebrating the Chilean Gastronomy Festival. For the event, Giancarlo Mazarrelli and Noe Chaparro are coming all the way from Chile to serve much of the best of their country to patrons. The event is sponsored by Copa Airlines, Prochile, Decanter and Anakena Wines. The Festival includes a wine-tasting night on 3 June, a food-wine tasting event on 4 June, a night of Chilean seafood from 5 to 12 June, and brunch on 7 June. A group of Chilean musicians will be performing at the restaurant during the event. Hector Concari, general manager of the Santo Domingo Hilton, made the announcement. Visitors to the Festival will take part in a raffle for a paid trip to Santiago de Chile and wine tour of the Anakena vineyard.
