These meals could have been served anywhere, but just happened to be prepared here in St. Thomas.
Basil Hummus Platter at Cafe Amici on Sunday. Really outstanding! Surprised how great it was.
with Fettuccine al Funghi. This was excellent as well! Cant wait to go back.
The Left Banc is a really cute restaurant that opened a few weeks ago in Charlotte Amalie...
very quaint interior...
I came for the Veggie Burger, but they had run out. Since we were the only guests on Saturday afternoon, the chef had time to prepare some vegan items for me. This was a Grilled Watermelon Salad. Very unique and sweet. Almost like dessert...
and Grilled Eggplant with a Tomato Relish. Tasty considering it was Eggplant.
The basil hummus platter looks amazing!! That restaurant is so cute, very cheery and welcoming.
ReplyDeleteI am scared of grilled watermelon the way I'm scared of grilled Romaine. I feel like watermelon should always be cold, but maybe I need to open my mind.
Sweet little Genip. Is he still friendly and sticking close to your home?
Genip is so friendly. Constantly trying to trip us as we come and go from the house. Lots of love bites. Such a wonderful boy.
DeleteEverything looks so good! The basil hummus plate looks like an ideal lunch for me. I am so impressed that you gave the eggplant a try! It looks great! The mushroom pasta definitely looks delicious as well. You've been eating well!
ReplyDeleteI love how bright and airy all of the restaurants look. Mood lighting can be nice but I really like the bright feel that the restaurants there have.
Awww I love the pic of Genip! What a sweetie, he looks so peaceful!
I am grateful for the light here as well. Better than trying to take pics with just a small kitchen window for light like de olde blog.
DeleteThose meals look and sound wonderful! The restaurant looks sooooo neat! I would LOVE to see more restaurants like that - very cute! And speaking of CUTE...kitty!!!!!! Yay!
ReplyDeleteThe Left Banc is really an adorable restaurant. If I had my own restaurent, that is how I would want it to be.
DeleteThat mushroom pasta looks so good and like it had a ton of mushrooms in there. And how great that the cook made you some vegan dishes, the eggplant looks tasty!
ReplyDeleteAny cooking at home lately? Or smoothie making? Seems like it's perpetually smoothie season there.
I'm headed to asia for work for a week, hoping to find some fantastic tofu and noodles

Ha ha! I can't tell which end is up on that photo of Genip.
ReplyDeleteThere is little else wonderful that excellent restaurant bread and hummus. The watermelon salad looks delicious!! But the mushroom pasta is spectacular! Yum!
The Bread and Hummus was so great. I see lots of that in my future!
