The Restaurant and Dining: Saturday night I had dinner at the Dodgy Dock a restaurant on the dock joined to the hotel. I had pasta salad, corn, vegetable salad, savoury Caribbean styled macaroni pie and chicken breast barbecued live in a sweet amber sauce.
On Sunday morning, I took it easy. I went downstairs to have
breakfast at the dock restaurant, where a well known gaggle of birds
happily and hopefully perused the scene in hopes of being invited to
pick from a plate. These birds are very popular and well known by most who frequent the area. While
some may be put off by their presence my animal lover self was constantly amused by them while I ate. They never steal if
you're looking but dare not turn your back on your food or best believe
they will fly away with It! I was warned by the staff though so I did not
fall victim.
I had lunch brought to my room on Saturday because I really
wanted to spend some time with myself, my book and the writing I needed
to get done. Life doesn't stop when you tell it to and it was a fruitful evening. The change of scenery did me
well. I had an air conditioned atmosphere within which to work and sea
sounds and birds calmly encouraging me to be free and get it done.
Sunday night I ordered dinner off the restaurant menu.
It was the Mexican styled fajitas and they were carried to my table
steaming off the plate with delicious sides of tomatoes, guacamole and
cream cheese. I packed them to my liking, into the provided skins and ate
to my hearts content.
This time dessert did not miss me ither but I took it back
to my room as I again wanted to retreat to the absence of my sea side
veranda. A veranda, now bathed in moonlight and solitude. My decadent dark
chocolate truffle paired with vanilla ice cream and I enjoyed it.
On Monday morning I had a vast Grenadian style breakfast
room serviced to me as I had a spa appointment at the Blue Haven Spa and
was in a hurry. They sent up some fragrant lemon grass tea, codfish
with scrambled eggs, roasted coconut bakes and a beautiful assortment of tropical fruit.
Entertainment:
On Saturday night there was a live band. Tammy Baldeo performed live
with
an accompanying guitarist Gabriel. They were phenomenal! They enhanced
the intimate, warm feel of a dimly little, on the dock, restaurant near
the
seaside. His guitar strummed, her voice soothed, the food digested and
the sea hummed along with low ripples and rumbles. It was a beautiful
evening and I was glued to my seat. I was well fed, cool, safe and
entertained.
On Sunday night I ate my fajitas to the sounds of soft calypso instrumental as the
full moon glistened over the water near my table. The food was affordable and so good I was ashamed of myself guys. See you soon for more of my True Blue Bay Experience!
