While in Grenada, we went to dinner at Water's Edge at Bel Air Plantation in St. David. Besides the mosquitoes, it was beautiful. It was a quiet night and the service was exceptional.


Starters: 
Callallo Tartlet: puff pastry filled with callaloo in a vermouth sauce and topped with parmesan cheese

Chicken Satay: marinated chicken, gently grilled and served with a spicy peanut sauce

Main course:
Grenada Rum & Ginger Chicken: grilled boneless breast of chicken flamed in rum and served in a ginger cream sauce with roast potatoes/ Basmati rice and seasonal vegetables

Grilled snapper and  Basmati rice
I had a rum punch that was delish. Our server doubled as the bartender. She made us a fruit punch that was to die for. I swear she pulled out a Jack LaLanne juicer and juiced all fresh fruits. It was soooooo freakin' good. We also had dessert: pumpkin cheesecake and chocolate pie with ice cream which we devoured before I could pull out my camera.
Last night Juliette and I decided to stay in the city and not head ALL the way back to the BX after a night of drinks and jokes with her coworker Philip.  I have very high standards so we did extensive research.  We stayed at Smyth in Tribeca. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The hotel is new and the rooms were CLEAN and HUGE by NYC standards. I highly recommend this hotel if ever needing a place to stay in NYC. I took this pics with my phone so the quality is not so great.
