“A Night of 1001 Mangos” describes the theme of a five-course spectacular Mango dinner matched with wines being held in the posh Jade Mountain Club at Anse Chastanet on St. Lucia.  Would I love to attend? You bet!  But, guess I’ll have to go in spirit. 

The Mango Madness Festival is being held in St. Lucia  from June 11-15, hosted by Chef Allen Susser, a James Beard award winner.  Susser is the author of The Great Mango Book and considered the definitive authority on this remarkable (and my favorite) fruit.
