Kenneth Dinham has been appointed as Executive Chef at Sunset At The Palms Resort
Known for its intimate, laid-back Jamaican atmosphere, Sunset at the Palms is an all-inclusive, adults-only resort set within the popular beach town of Negril. A stay at the resort invites guests to leave their worries behind, with every detail – from accommodations to dining – taken care of. Among the team of dedicated hosts ensuring a stress-free getaway for their guests is newly appointed executive chef Kenneth Dinham.
Dinham, whose previous culinary roles included stints at other prestigious resorts throughout Negril, was inspired to cook at a young age, watching his mom prepare tasty dishes daily. At the resort, he and the culinary team he now leads focus their attention on each dish’s distinctive ingredients and flavors.
The resort offers nightly themed buffets that showcase international flavors to appeal to every palate. These include tastes of the Caribbean or Mediterranean, a sunset barbecue on the beach and more. The resort also offers an à la carte dining experience and a Chefs Showcase that takes guests on an interactive journey during a live cooking event.
Among the must-try dishes Dinham recommends are the resort’s signature pumpkin soup, which uses pumpkins grown in the resort’s lush, tropical gardens, as well as its jerked chicken and grilled rack of lamb.
In addition to focusing on exceptional ingredients, Dinham also enjoys teaching his team new skills so they can create memorable culinary experiences for guests. The culinary team uses the best and freshest ingredients as it blends the island’s natural spices to bring out the best in each dish served.
Beyond its multiple dining outlets, Sunset at the Palms offers weekly cooking classes so guests can learn their way around some of Jamaica’s most popular dishes. They can also participate in a weekly mixology class.
