Just a short walk from the ferry dock in Nevis, you’ll find Cafe des Arts. Cafe des Arts is a casual cafe, located right next door to the Museum of Nevis History and the birthplace of Alexander Hamilton, the first Secretary of the Treasury of the United States.

No trip to Anguilla is complete without a stop at Geraud’s. I am amazed every time I enter the shop – – row after row of gorgeous pastries and breads to choose from!

So not only do you get a nice meal, you get great music too! The setting is beautiful, especially on a gorgeous afternoon like…

Taste of the Caribbean takes us to Harbour Island in the Bahamas, a short 10-minute boat ride from the northern end of Eleuthera. This island known best for the famous Pink Sand Beach on its eastern shore, is also home to some fantastic restaurants, including Sip Sip, known for cocktails and gossip, “sip sip,” but also for delicious food by chef Julie Lightbourn. The spicy conch chili can be found on the menu every day at Sip Sip, but don’t come for dinner. Sip Sip is open for lunch only, and is closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays, so plan ahead. It should not be missed. For more on our trip to…
