date night at blue bay

Blue Bay - Portsmouth, Dominica
Type of Food - french, creole, swiss 
The menu: fish, goat, chicken, spaghetti, and lobster


You walk down this dirt path toward the bay and you veer to the right up a concrete slab and as you turn the corner you see the deck- about 8 tables and a  bar... it overlooks the bay and all the boats. The ac is the breeze. The service is ummm... well... the lack of service is just sort of expected, does that make sense? I really don't think that people should leave their country, come to a completely new and vastly different one and expect the things that they are accustomed to having.  I imagine that the owner of Blue Bay lives far away and its run by management that may very well be underpaid... so- whatever. 
The food is great! The atmosphere is wonderful, relaxing and its in a part of the town that is very authentic. When we eat here I feel like I am really in the caribbean. Surrounded by locals and sailors- people who sail around the world and dock on different shores and taste the island... How romantic!!! Romantic in an individual way - not in the regular sense of the word. I love it! If you are in the area- make sure you stop here and have the lobster. For 80 eastern caribbean dollars ( about 30 usd ) You are served 10 fairly large lobster tails, you get a delicious salad, rice, and breadfruit cake - a native ground provision, much like a potato but "More bland though" as Russ described it. 
For dessert they have an apple crisp - its 23ec and I would just skip it... honestly, have another glass of wine, or two, a glass of red wine is 11ec... you have to pick your poison.

First we have to call a taxi

Ponder over the menu

Eat our delicious lobster!
