In the Dominican Republic, situated on two miles of Punta Cana’s white sand beach, is Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort, an all-inclusive dream for every type of traveler. The resort consists of two hotels, the Barceló Bávaro Palace and adults-only Barceló Bávaro Beach, making it the perfect option for families or couples vacationing in Dominican Republic.

Barceló Bávaro Grand Resort recently hosted Culinary Week, where guests can indulge in the local cuisines, along with unique recipes of another country’s cuisine. This year, top chefs from Mexico flew in to create new recipes from both regions for the spectacular event.

With everything from authentic tequila mixology classes with Sommelier Jose Joaquin Cortes to Dominican breakfast tastings with chef Embert Liranzo, Barcelo Bavaro Grand Resort brings an exclusive twist on the way its guests taste each country’s fare.

A standout night of culinary week featured a six-course dinner by Mexico City-born chef Xavier Pérez Stone and Dominican chef Jacqueline Henriquez. By mixing the two cultures together, they created dishes such as beef tongue tacos, seasonal mushrooms with Mexican pepper leaf and guajillo chili sauce, and a fresh fish ceviche with achiote paste.
