Mac’s Pizzeria
Conch fritters with Erica’s Caribbean hot sauce, salad, an assortment of pizzas to share
(We also watched the Super Bowl and had a junk food fest for dinner at Papa’s Bar on Bequia – wings, ribs, fish and chips, popcorn, and more)

Tamarind Beach Hotel & Yacht Club
More tomatoes with (really good fresh) mozzarella and basil, more gazpacho, superb risotto with shrimp and sundried tomatoes (always trust a good waiter’s suggestions)

Anchorage Yacht Club
Waiting out the rain (the only storm of our entire trip) is much easier with good wine and pizza

Salt Whistle Bay Club
The resort is just reopening by the daughter of the former owner who passed away, so all they had for lunch was a club sandwich or freshly caught snapper

Bougainvillea Pizzeria
More callaloo soup, pizza and salad – always popular with our group for lunch – and a nice way to spend a little time while waiting for our new friend Jimmy to get us a new gas can for our dingy

Sun Beach Eat Restaurant & Bar
We stopped in for the rum punch, but Anthony Bourdain featured Vanessa’s spot on one of his No Reservations shows

Twilight
Sharing some bubbly with Troy who then enticed us to dine at his family’s Twilight restaurant – some of the best chicken I’ve had in years served with potatoes, rice, and vegetables, with fish soup as a starter

The Grenada Yacht Club
Final night’s dinner – most of the group had another round of callaloo soup, salad, and seafood pasta, but I ventured out to try the Caribbean curried lamb with rice (really delicious)
