I am trying to plan my restaurant visits better for this trip. I always seem to take a very ad hoc approach and miss out on some of the good ones because they are closed when I choose to show up at their door. Perhaps winter months are different (I am normally and off-season visitor).
Here is my list of intended restaurants. I could look these up, but have tried for a little bit and finding the hours isn't as easy as it might seem.I would appreciate a heads up about any closings on any days....
INDiGO
Havana Blue
Cuzzins
North Drop
Rhumb Lines
Caribbean Saloon
Azure
Indigo has the Traveling Road Show (arts & crafts) there on Mondays - or used to....and I've been there when they were open on Mon.
Havana Blue - on property of Morningstar so WHY would they close? although the Beach House on BOlongo is closed on Monday nights, so who knows....will try & find out.
NOrth Drop - yes.
Caribbean Saloon - no way do they close =)
no idea on Rhumb Lines or Azure
Cuzzin's is open for lunch only on Mondays, closes at 4:00 or 4:30.
Thank you both. That'll save me from ruining my restaurant plan.
Indigo still has the art & crafts show on Mondays, its nice, steel pan is okay. Try the jalepeno Tilapia
Havana Blue is open on manday - try the Filet with wasabi mash potatoes and have a mojito!
Cuzzins is closed monday nights - Northdrop closes on mondays.
Carib Saloon closes at 4 am on Mondays and other nights. There Pizza is awesome at 2 am.
Thanks for the specific food recommendations, agv. I have been told, countless times, to try the Mojitos at Havana Blue, so there must be something to them. And since I love mojitos, that sounds like a winner. The fillet recommendation is new. I had been reading about the Sea Bass. Do they have any music? Piano? Do you recommend asking for a specific table (a window table or other better positioned table?)
What is a Mojito? Just the name makes my mouth water! LOL
crickett : )
I like the music, although not live. It has an upbeat latin rhythm. I like the window tables, but every table seems to have a great view. I like to go at sunset, when the cruise ships are leaving, the view is awesome. I've heard the seabass is awesome too.
Mojito
3 fresh mint sprigs
2 tsp sugar
3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 oz light rum
club soda
In a tall thin glass, crush part of the mint with a fork to coat the inside. Add the sugar and lemon juice and stir thoroughly. Top with ice. Add rum and mix. Top off with *chilled* club soda (or seltzer). Add a lemon slice and the remaining mint, and serve.
I have a bottle of Cruzan light rum with mint leaves always in it.
Oh, it's a drink? Embarrassedly I have to admit I thought it was a food... sounds Mexican, so I thought maybe it was some sort of Spanish influenced Caribbean food!
crickett : ) who might have to cook up something Tex-Mex and call it a Mojitto (notice 2 T's so they're not the same) LOL
Mojito:
It is very refreshing and light - for those of us who have learned not to drink painkillers for the entire trip and gain 20 lbs!!!
mmmmm moittos.
I know the Room with a View is closed on Mondays
Room with a View is closed, but the Banana Tree Grill right outside is (or was) open on Mondays - Lightning Phil used to play Mondays there. He's now at Lat 18 on Mondays until Dick SOlberg's run is up in April (I think)
