The highlight of the Conch Festival is a ‘conch-etition’ which pits the island’s best restaurants and chefs against each other in a tasting competition judged by a panel local and celebrity chefs. An added twist this year is that a member of the public will also serve as a judge, through a contest hosted by Turks and Caicos Reservations — a centralized Turks and Caicos tourism service ( see related news release ).  Kicking off the Conch Festival weekend will be a night of music, wine and conch-themed culinary creations on Friday at the luxurious beachfront Somerset Resort on Grace Bay. The evening will feature local jazz musicians and a gourmet dinner presented by Lauren Callighen of The Somerset’s O’Soleil restaurant.  On Saturday, November 27, the family-friendly Conch Festival will start at noon in Blue Hills. An entry fee of $25 enables a sampling of all the dishes and a vote for Best in Show . Along with conch tasting there will be a host of conch-related and kids activities, a Mojito-making contest, local entertainment and the annual Pot of Gold drawing where The Rotary Club of Providenciales gives away $10,000 to one lucky raffle ticket purchaser. A cameo appearance by Santa Claus is also highly likely
