group of employees were in conversation
with Ms. Simmone Bowe, Director of Hu-
man Resources and Training at the Baker’s
Bay Club, a complaint came up about the
curry in the cafeteria, Aretha said, “I can
cook the best curry,” which led to the ini-
tiation of the friendly curry cook off.

Each entrant paid careful attention to the
presentation of their dish as this is so im-
portant in food service and it played an im-
portant part in the judging process. Judges
for the event were Don Cornish from the
Abaco Ministry of Tourism, Alistair Mc-
Donald, owner of Curly Tails Restaurant,
and Marika Seymour of Guana Cay Build-
ers who stated that her credentials for be-
ing one of the judges were that she is “a

thought that “they all did a wonderful job.”
Ms. Seymour commended all the contes-
tants, commenting on the excellence of the
food and the fact that each dish was so dif-
ferent.

Don Cornish was very pleased with the
standard of the food. “This augurs well for
Baker’s Bay since events such as this can
actually foster camaraderie amongst the
staff. I encourage other activities to bring
the staff together,” he stated.

The employees who had gathered to
support the contestants and join in the fun
of the event taste tested all of the curries
once the judges had all been served and
they voted for their favourite curry.

Mr. Cornish announced the judges’ re-
sults as follows:

1st Place - Aretha Huyler

2nd Place - Tie between Zachary Smith
and Charisse Saunders

“The event was organized by the Em-
ployee Experience Committee of Baker’s
Bay as part of Human Resources and
Training as an initiative to engage staff
and management to work together in co-
ordinating events,” explained Ms. Bowe,
who was very happy with the outcome of
the event. “I like to encourage employees
to do events like this where they are able
to enjoy their talents, and it shows that
work doesn’t have to be a drag; there can
be fun times too. We want to make Bak-
er’s Bay the employer of choice in The
Bahamas.”

Ms. Bowe would like to see further in
house competitions, possibly once a quar-
ter and some already “in the pipeline” are
