Saturday/Jax ruralcarrier Yesterday at 11:23 AM A pretty quiet day. I dropped the group at SMYC for breakfast while I made a quick trip into town and then a stop by LaVista to say hi to a long-time friend, Jean-Marie. Some pool time at Royal Palm then a quick lunch at Lee's. We headed to Maho a little early to have a drink at Roma and do a little shopping.

Dinner reservations at Jax for a group of 8, which included kim and the Whale Tails. It made for exceptionally good company and conversation. Kim goes back to visiting the island as a young girl, with her mom and dad (pat &John) and has me beat in years coming here. Whale Tail covered the food choices with his pictures. The food and service were all very good and I am glad they felt welcome to join us. I had planned to order the beef short rib but Jax had a Chateaubriand special (3 different sizes were offered) and when I saw kim's eyes light up when the waiter described it, we decided to split the 14 oz portion. I think the cost was $95, which is comparable or even less than I have paid at high-end restaurants at home. It was very good, as were all the other choices.

Some in the group did a little more shopping, gambling and I went to the Beer Garden for a glass of wine and to enjoy the scenes and weather.

As we came by Nowhere Special it was packed and loud at about 10:30. I had no idea where the music was coming from, but I heard some up to 4:00am. Not loud but it could be heard.

Drone light show at Maho on March 4 the captain Yesterday at 03:53 AM Just ran across this. Interesting considering how drones and airports are a generally an issue.

https://sxmsir.com/stories/drone-light-show-is-coming-to-maho-st-maarten

on march 4 above the Sonesta.

While Im thinking about it, my kid left her SXM dinner place mat (w a pic of a 747 landing) in her room last Saturday. We got it in Maho Market but can't find a replacement online anywhere.
Anyone want to grab one for me on the way back to NY? wink

Dinner At Jax's Whale Tail Yesterday at 03:23 AM We went to Jax's tonight for dinner tonight and the food was excellent as well as the guests we were with. We were joined with JD and posse (Charlie, Jill, Anne, Cody) and Kim. JD figures that there was about 150 years of SXM seated at the table. I'm not sure which was better the food or the conversation. I've always wanted to spend some time with Pat to listen to her stories about SXM and tonight I got the next best thing conversation with her daughter Kim. It was a great night.
The food and service was top notch and I took a few pics of some of our dinners.

Marina Cay Marilyn 03/01/2025 11:15 PM The new restaurant at Marina Cay looks like it could be fun, and they advertise rental of some toys like kayaks, SUPS, etc. Has anyone been there? Do they have water and fuel facilities?

Thanks.

Chez Fernand bakery KGB 03/01/2025 10:13 PM For those of us who is still missing the good old Serafina- this is a new place that is on par! Amazing pastries and sandwiches! Lots of yummy things to choose from, lots of people behind the counter so the line up goes pretty fast. Way better than LaSucria. Great coffee, great service, good prices. And very tasty offerings. If you haven’t been there yet- don’t wait, run! lol! It’s in Marigot right where the market is. Easy to find. Parking could be a problem so you might have to walk a bit.
