Eating out in 2008

Post by Gary »

Our 2008 Tobago trip was fabulous & this time we had a much better time of it as far as food was concerned. Here’s a quick rundown on some of the places we ate.

----------------------------------
Shore Things :

Great place to eat in a relaxed atmosphere overlooking the sea with the waves crashing against the shore, the service was very good, polite & only slow when busy, excellent fresh fruit smoothies, ice cold beer, superb carrot cake & the fish pastelles are well worth a try. :D

----------------------------------
Seahorse Inn :

This was the top end of the places we ate and thoroughly enjoyed the experience, the seafood is superb & the wine menue although pricey is extensive plus if your gagging for a real ale they have that too. :D

----------------------------------

Patsy’s Original Hot Doubles in Scarborough :

What else can I say other than seek out this place & give them a try, fabulous. :D

----------------------------------
Bamboo Mile :

Again we very much enjoyed the food here, the atmosphere very relaxing & the service is very friendly but can be a little forgetful at times. :D

----------------------------------
Rosie’s Bakery :

Again excellent & well worth stopping off to pick up a snack while passing. :D

---------------------------------
Sharon & Pheb’s :

Nice place to chill, try the shrimp they are great. :D

---------------------------------
Speyside :

We never got the name of this place a pink/peach coloured snack hut alongside the beach not far from the jetty. Well worth a mention for the delicious roti. Hope you find it ! :D

---------------------------------
Castara :

Oh dear ! . . . . . . . . . We only tried two places in Castara this year and what a disaster each time, so much so we were put off trying anywhere else there.

Café Delight :

This was anything but a delight the painfully slow service by the miserable staff made the 40 minute wait for a mediocre tuna sandwich unacceptable. :(

We swam round to the other place you will recognise it by the tassels of cloth & fish hanging from the ceiling that look very colourful & inviting. However the wait for pizza’s here was ridiculously long & to top it all they are no longer able to sell alcohol/beer’s so unless all you want a soft drink there’s not much reason to go there. :(

The poor service in Castara became laughingly known amongst us as Castara-itus for good reason, :roll: shame really as the bay is a lovely place & well worth a visit & the snorkelling there is very good too.

--------------------------------------

The last place on this list is the bar in the Tobago Hilton :

Be warned the service is very poor ! :(

--------------------------------------

Well thats it we are now looking forward to planning our return next year 8) Gary.
