JSEC Round-up 2019 Part 1

Editors’ Note: In the interest of fairness, Vantage writers only reviewed food that was offered by the stalls during their respective taste tests. Two stalls, namely Taverna and Mana, were not included in the round-up because they are co-owned by current members of The GUIDON’s Editorial Board.
