Yesterday was an Orient Beach day. Orange Fever was our first beach spot, on our first day on our first trip here back in 2016 on our honeymoon. We were excited to return and it didn’t disappoint. The water was wonderful yesterday. We spent several hours, breaking for lunch at a table up by the bar. Pizza with their spicy oil, stuffed mussels, and some delicious salmon ceviche. The frozen mojitos (as well as all the food) were chef’s kiss. Our feline dining companion might’ve hustled me out of a few bites of salmon and guacamole. Fancy Feast indeed
Dinner at Spiga was phenomenal. No photos except for a dessert because we were enjoying ourselves so much. Prosciutto and melon, lamb ragu, braised short rib, snapper with puttanesca sauce, pistachio panna cotta, and more things I’m forgetting. I also love finding spots on the island that make a perfect traditional martini and Spiga was A+ in this department. My husband had a surprisingly good Boulavardier so kudos to their bar program. A wonderful first full day.
